THE REALITY AND MEASURES TO LIMIT THE RISK OF FIRE SPREADING IN HIGH-RISE BUILDINGS AND APARTMENT COMPLEXES
Fire prevention in high-rise buildings is a top concern for contractors, investors, and owners of any construction project. The aftermath of a fire leaves behind serious repercussions, not only in terms of property damage but also in the threat to lives. In reality, selecting high-quality fire prevention solutions is always a top priority for construction contractors.

So what is fire spread? What are the specialized solutions that contractors and investors choose to prevent fire spread?
Fire spread between floors occurs when flames "jump" to other floors through open holes and technical shafts. There are typically three types of floor fire spread that are most common.
- Conduction fire spread
In this case, the flames spread along the heat stream, sometimes also due to the hot vapor which creates sparks, igniting a fire. A large amount of heat will be transmitted between molecules, along the burning material. - Convection fire spread
This type of fire spread is common in gases and liquids. The fire creates a massive amount of gas and smoke. At this point, the temperature rises, the hot air rises higher, and the hot vapor sticks to the ceiling to spread throughout the room. - Radiant heat fire spread
In this scenario, thermal energy is transmitted through direct radiant rays from the flames. Combustible materials absorb these rays, and when they are hot enough, they ignite.
In recent years, the construction industry has been shifting towards fire prevention solutions that are not only environmentally friendly but also ensure safety and economic efficiency. Understanding the current market concerns, Amavi Solution has introduced fire-resistant gypsum partition walls - with insulation properties, fire spread resistance according to regulations, applicable to areas requiring fire prevention such as evacuation corridors and elevators.
