An apartment complex went up outside my work and it’s made of wood. That’s against fire safety code but they found some creative work arounds to convince the inspectors it was legal. (And of course the inspections are all toadies who have been put in place to rubber stamp developer plans.) Very efficient until it burns down and kills everyone inside.

So it doesn’t actually meet minimum standards?

It meets the law but it sure as hell doesn’t meet the safety.

Laws usually follow industry standard safety guidelines.
