Abstract

In today's industrial realm, safeguarding against fire hazards is of utmost importance, especially in facilities like polyurethane foam and allied products factories, where combustible materials pose significant risks. This paper does an in-depth study of the cutting-edge architectural strategies crafted to curb fire risks in such factory settings. It is basically guided by weaving together some innovative design principles, sturdy structural systems, and tailored building services, which are advancements that do not only bolster safety but also streamline production processes and shield valuable assets. The paper emphasizes key architectural principles like zoning, structural resilience, thoughtful space utilization, and the integration of specialized building services geared towards fire prevention. these architectural innovations place human safety and well-being at the forefront while fortifying defenses against potential fire incidents.
