From the perspective of architecture, this paper discusses the disaster-prevention strategies for existing urban high-rise housing. Through an analysis of architectural space, architectural structure, and building materials of existing high-rise housing, the paper puts forward disaster-prevention strategies with the purpose of reducing and alleviating casualty loss, and ensuring effective evacuation of residents.

Autoclaved aerated concrete (Called Thermostone in Iraq) is one of the popular building materials that are used in various purposes in construction industries. It is factory-made material that can be moulded into blocks which can be used in framework buildings. However, these buildings are under the risk of fire since it has different cusses such as arson and electrical short circuit. It is important to find ways to improve counter such phenomenon. Therefore the objective of this paper is investigating the fire resistance performance of Thermostone with and without plastering. Five different samples were used for the test, four of them were covered with different types of plastering. Three tests were employed for this study: Compressive, absorption, and density test. For all tests, the samples were exposed to elevated temperatures from 250 °C to 900 °C. It was shown that plastered samples have demonstrated a higher fire resistance and lower absorption rate than non-plastered ones.

Metal enameling is widely used in construction, which differs enameled products from other building materials: the ability to obtain a variety of colors and surfaces; resistance of the surface under the influence of the atmosphere and sunlight; high corrosion resistance; light weight, lightness and quick installation; fire resistance; ease of cleaning; the possibility of mechanizing the manufacture of parts in serial production. The authors of the article have developed the compositions of enamel coatings and investigated their aesthetic and consumer and technical and operational properties. Also, three compositions of new enamel coatings for architectural and construction panels have been developed and enamel coatings of various colors, including pastel colors, have been obtained on their basis.

Ability to resist of high temperature impacts during fire is not based exclusively on ignitability of building materials. At the present time, fire resistance is declared mainly through fire tests, but numerical procedures for the determination of fire resistance also represent an effective alternative in this field. Using calculation methods for the determination of ceiling structure fire resistance on the basis of timber is subject of the submitted paper. The main objective of this paper is to demonstrate the fact that timber, or products from it, are building materials capable to resist impacts of fully developed fire for the period of more than 60 minutes in spite of their flammability. Applicability of these results in selected countries of Europe can be seen from the list of requirements.
