From the above differences, it can be seen that apartments and houses are two different types of buildings, so the fire protection design is also different, or even completely different. This article mainly discusses the difference between residential apartment (ordinary apartment) and residential fire protection design. Business apartment and hotel apartment are public buildings, and the fire protection design must be carried out according to public buildings. The apartments below refer exclusively to residential apartments.
For multi-storey buildings, the “Code for Fire Protection Design of Buildings” GB50016-2006 puts forward the concepts of residential buildings and non-residential residential buildings. Apartments and houses belong to residential buildings, but at the same time apartments belong to non-residential residential buildings.
