As a unit owner if this doesn’t frighten the bejeezes out of you, then I don’t know what will.  I understand that no one was hurt which is a relief. A strata fire to end all strata fires.

Check out this video clip Tamweel Tower Blaze (Dubai)

“While it’s uncertain how this fire was started, many think the metal used for cladding contained a flammable core that propelled the flames even faster. Reporters even captured images of the burning metal pieces popping off the sides of the building and starting smaller fires on the roofs of nearby structures.” [via archpaper and Gulf News]

This is a timely reminder to get your house in order and make sure that you are up to date with the fire regulations for your strata property.  Some states are super-tough at ensuring compliance from unit owners in strata corps (NSW is a good example) but other states are more relaxed in their legislation.

For safety’s sake, it’s important that you have the very best protection for your property but also the people living inside. Thankfully no one was hurt in this blaze so they must have had a good evacuation plan at least.
