Why Is Construction Type Important?<br />
• Construction Type is important because it<br />
prevents the building from collapsing before<br />
all occupants can escape.<br />
• The slower the occupants, the longer the<br />
building must st<strong>and</strong>. Do you have any slow<br />
occupants in your building?<br />
• The taller the building, the longer it takes for<br />
occupants to get to the ground floor <strong>and</strong> out<br />
<strong>of</strong> the building.
