Answer #1

Answer:-

Stainless steels are not ignitable and will also not assist in the propagation of fires by flame spread. The surface of stainless steel is normally inert and stable in oxidizing conditions, such as those found in most flames and heat sources.

Most stainless steel grades that would be considered for building applications are long-term oxidation resistance at temperatures over 800°C and do not begin to melt until temperatures of over 1375°C are reached. It is unlikely that uniform, sustained high temperatures like these would be reached in short term 'transient' fire conditions.

Hence stainless steel as a structural member in fire conditions is very safe than other materials
