Fireproofing For Homes Improves Safety and Longevity
Builders of moderately priced homes increasingly fireproof the first floor and foundation. Masonry walls up to the first floor, fireproof underfooting, and improved concrete mixes reduce termite risk, settling, and basement dust. Modern steel supports and light skeleton frames offer strong protection without heavy weight. Fireproofing costs may be modest compared to traditional wooden systems.
