Concrete separation also acts as fire barriers, which is very important in areas where people will be cooking stuff. Office buildings don’t typically have stoves with open flame everywhere.
- twblalock 6y agoMost apartment buildings in the Bay Area are made of wood with 2x4 wall framing and sheetrock, except for a relatively small number of high rise buildings. We haven't really had a fire problem.
