Everything will burn

When we started looked for a new building one of our concerns was how fire proof the new building was going to be.  We were informed that the term fire proof is no longer used as nothing is completely fire proof.  Instead material is added to the building materials to make them fire retardant.  Depending upon the material added and the material it is being added to will determine just how retardant the building  is.   Steel is not normally thought of a burning yet with enough heat the steel will collapse.  The steel does not have to actually burn to weaken and bring the building down.
