I have been researching this common sense approach to mid-rise single lot apartment buildings for years. I see the benefits to life safety as the opl paradigm of what affects people in a fire fall away to new sprinkler reliability.
Also the rise of foam plastics in our furnishings has changed the threat.
It is time to re-evaluate how we provide safety in apartment buildings. The long double-loaded corridor is a death trap, essentially. This was shown to be in the Twin Parks North West fire in the Bronx New York in 2022.
Unlock the future of safer, smarter buildings with my new book — a practical guide that puts code knowledge directly in your hands.
This book demystifies building codes and design principles so professionals, students, and curious owners can:
Understand the “why” behind regulations, not just the “what”
Spot opportunities for creative, code-compliant solutions
Improve occupant safety while enabling innovation
Communicate clearly with architects, engineers, and authorities having jurisdiction
What you’ll get:
Clear, plain-English explanations of complex code topics
Real-world examples and before/after case studies
Actionable checklists and decision guides you can use on the job
Practical strategies to balance safety, cost, and design intent
Forward-looking insight on emerging technologies and how codes are evolving
Who this book is for:
Architects and engineers who want to design with confidence
Contractors and code officials who need faster, more consistent decisions
Building owners and managers seeking to reduce risk and maximize value
Students and lifelong learners building a foundation in applied code knowledge
Why it matters: Building codes exist to protect people — but they also shape what’s possible. This book bridges the gap between regulation and creativity, so you can deliver safer buildings that perform better and look great. Whether you’re navigating a complex project or planning for tomorrow’s innovations, this guide gives you the tools and clarity to act decisively.
