The Marshall Fire was not supposed to be possible. Homes built using modern building codes and materials are not supposed to burn to the ground. A community miles away from the nearest forested land is not supposed to be decimated by a wildfire. Yet\, in spite of what is \;supposed \;to be\, on December 30\, 2021\, 1\,084 structures burned and two lives were lost in a fire that caused more than $2 billion in damage.

\nIn the face of this unlikely catastrophe\, what can we observe about fire-resistant construction? What can be done to help prevent similar disasters in the future?

\nThis webinar will look at the lessons learned by those who fought the fire and researched \;the aftermath. We'\;ll also look at the basis for fire testing and emerging Code requirements. Finally\, we'\;ll discuss construction options such as masonry and other economical non-combustible materials.
