English

Subject field(s)
  • Fire Safety
CONT

Fire protection via prevention programs does not adequately protect Museums from fires.

OBS

compartmentation. A type of building design in which a building is divided into sections that can be closed off from each other so that there is resistance to fire spread beyond the area of origin; it is most common in highrise buildings and health care facilities.
