The development of modern fire protection codes results from responding to catastrophic fires rather than anticipating such fires. Fire safety regulations are essential for ensuring the security and integrity of all sorts of buildings. These regulations establish minimum standards to protect the people within a building and the structure itself from harm. The codes are the living documents continuously evolving and modified according to the adaptation and response of people, their knowledge, technologies, and trends, the greatest threat to fire disaster management. Traditionally, incidents that have occurred within buildings and resulted in many incidents have directly influenced the current code standards. Many changes which could make to building & fire safety codes are a direct reaction to tragic events. The evolution of fire safety codes over some time and test technologies have significantly improved in ensuring fire safety; through the existing regulations. Fire safety still faces new challenges as the buildings go high rise with the latest technologies and new building materials used for construction.
