  "id": "MLC-T-INS-002214",
  "term": "Modified fire resistive construction",
  "field": "Insurance and risk management",
  "definition": "A type of building construction that uses materials and designs to resist fire for a specified period, but to a lesser degree than full fire-resistive construction. This classification often involves structural components like walls, floors, and roofs made of non-combustible materials, such as concrete or protected steel. Insurers use this classification to assess fire risk and determine appropriate premium rates for property insurance.",
