Fire Prevention District
Fire Prevention Districts(防火地域)are designated to prevent the spread of fire. In these areas, buildings must use highly fire-resistant materials and structures. Strict fire safety standards apply to both new constructions and renovations, aiming to minimize fire risks. Quasi-fire Prevention Districts(準防火地域), have less strict rules but still require some fire safety measures, like using fire-resistant materials and following specific regulations, to keep the area safer.
