."An important truth is constantly
being emphasized by the experience
of fires occuring in so-called ‘fire-
proof buildings, which are not what
their name implie*. In other words,
while they will not burn ‘down,’
they will burn ‘out.’
“This fact ha* been demonstrated
in several more or less recent occur-
rence*, in some instances in fires
arising from outside exposures, and
again from the contents, inflam-
mable in their nature, becoming
ignited and the fire spreading thru
’ /entilating shaft* and other open-
ngs to other floors, where more
urnable material is stored,” says the
magazine, Fire Engineering.
“No matter how fire resistant the
itructur itself may be, it is only as
fireproof as its contents. If the con-
tents are inflamable, there is just
as likely to be a hot and severe fire
in the ‘fireproof’ building as in that
of less resistant construction.
“The term ‘fireproof,’ as applied
to buildings, is very deceiving, and
its use should be discouraged, as it
i naturally gives to those not well in-
formed in the matter, a false sense
of security which is dangerous in the
i extreme.
“A much more sensible and cer-
tainly truer term is that of ’fire re-
sistant,’ which tells the story of the
modern building, and emphasizes its
advantages, without exaggeration.”
