NFPA has a lot of research backing up their construction recommendations that are part of BOCA code. Firefighters are taught about various types of building construction in basic training. Fire load within a building depends primarily on the contents. Insurance companies make inspections to try to keep conditions inside a building safe. The actual structure has to pass stringent code requirements. Wood structure has to be covered with fire rated sheet rock, which in some places like between a house and a attached garage has to be thicker than in the interior of a house. Woodframed commercial structures depending on the occupancy are usually protected by Sheetrock which takes considerable time to burn through. Steel frame is often bare and as we learned at fire school will fail suddenly once a period of time at a high temperature passes. Firefighters are usually allowed less time to put out a fire in an exposed frame steel building than wood stick framed. More time is allowed in the case of post and beam framing which can maintain its strength virtually for hours. Fire fighters are under considerable pressure to get to the seat of the fire quickly in order to get it out or at least significantly cooled down or the officer in charge will order them out.

After a few paragraphs I usually close the book and go back to banging out dents. A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point
