As an adult, I lived in Russia, Singapore, Canada, and China.
Russia for sure has at least half of that in the code.
Singapore, and Canada a bit more, but do not mandate fire extinguishers in residential buildings on national level.
And China has all of the above... on paper.
- iguy 6y agoCan't say I know anything about those, unless Hong Kong counts -- it is certainly full of towers with barely space for one staircase.
- baybal2 6y agoFrom what I heard, HK indeed requires 2 stairs, just no necessary two separate staircases.
- iguy 6y agoAh, looking again at floorplans, some appear to be stacking two stair paths in one stairwell. So if you have a fire in one apartment, maybe the smoke only reaches (say) even-floor-number front doors.
