Genuine question.
Fortunately, large-scale skyscraper fires are relatively rare.
But I have noted several in the middle east in the last few years, where the fire has seemed to scale the building at enormous speed.
It it the cladding? Is there a unique design-flaw at play? Just thought there might some expert input on why this seems to be a thing.
