And its wall and roof panel materials may be roughly the same in fire resistance as stick frame walls. How ever company interoduced a new Flameproof Sandwich Insulated Panels (FSIP) to used with MHS building System. MHS offers one great advantage is in fire containment. The aluminum post and beam structure effectively isolates the more flammable materials of wall panels like a network of fire-stops or fire walls. Thus the time fires take to spread may take longer. Its standardization on the use of metal exterior cladding is also an advantage in resisting fires from external sources.
Another great advantage of MHS is seen after a fire event, assuming a home has suffered only partial fire damage. Most of the materials used in the conventional stick frame home will retain residue of smoke and toxic chemicals from burned plastics indefinitely. They will also suffer extensive damage from the water and fire retardant chemicals applied in fighting a fire. Thus even small brief fires can require extensive renovation to completely restore the livability of a home. In contrast, being composed of aluminum, MHS's frame material will not retain any residue of fires and is completely undamaged by wet or fire fighting chemicals. It's quick modular construction makes recovery from a fire quick and simple.
