I don’t understand how it could get to that point. I don’t know what code these were built to but a high rise office building in my country would have to be non combustible construction and depending on the year it was built have sprinklers. Office buildings are typically low hazard occupancies with limited fuel loads.
The UK had Grenfell just a few years ago.
