Limestone can undergo thermal decomposition at high temperatures, causing it to crumble or disintegrate. This can compromise the structural integrity of the building during a fire, increasing the risk of collapse. Additionally, limestone is a poor conductor of heat, which can lead to the build-up of heat in certain areas, exacerbating the fire hazard.

A fire can be prevented using limestone during welding. The limestone dust absorbs the oil, making it less combustible.

When limestone is heated it decomposes in thermal decomposition, to produce calcium oxide (quicklime) and carbon dioxide thus weakening the building structure.
