"firetrap"의 정의 및 의미

What is a "firetrap"?

A firetrap refers to a building or structure that is particularly dangerous in the event of a fire due to its design, poor maintenance, or lack of proper fire safety measures. This could include narrow hallways, locked exit doors, or inadequate escape routes that make it difficult for people to exit safely. A firetrap increases the risk of injury or death during a fire because it may trap people inside or hinder emergency responders. Firetraps are often associated with older buildings or poorly designed spaces.
