Yes, modular buildings can be designed to be fire-resistant. There are several ways this can be achieved, including:
1. Use of fire-resistant materials such as gypsum board, concrete, and steel in the construction of the modular building.
2. Installation of fire detectors and sprinklers in the building to alert occupants of a fire and help control it.
3. Designing the modular building to have multiple exits to ensure quick and safe evacuation in case of fire.
4. Ensuring proper ventilation and insulation in the building to reduce the risk of fires starting.
5. Adhering to local and national fire safety codes and regulations when designing and constructing the modular building.
Overall, with proper design and construction, modular buildings can be made to be very fire-resistant and safe for occupants.
