Explanation:

The main problem when the triangle shirtwaist factory fire broke was that there were no requirements for fire exits, sprikler systems or safety inspections, the first emergency call came when someone on the streets saw smoke coming out of a window in the building, then to add to the problems, many of those floors were locked because of a policy of the owners of the fabric in order to prevent workers frmo taking breaks when it was no time for breaks, so that´s the reason for the high death roll.
