Fire-safe materials are those that are not damaged by fire. These materials include glass, metal, and most stone. No types of wood are fire-safe, and neither are charcoal or coke. Bituminous coal and lignite are flammable stone, and therefore not fire-safe. Furthermore, the game only considers bars, blocks, stone, logs, and anvils to be capable of being fire-safe - all other item types are rejected outright.
Fire-safe materials are only required when the object is going to come into contact with extreme heat, such as all conventional furnaces and the forge. For the magma-powered versions of these buildings, as well as anything that will be in direct contact with magma (such as floodgates), fire-safe material is not enough: it has to be magma-safe.
As far as the game is concerned, only materials which are stable at the temperature 11000 °U (i.e. MELTING_POINT/BOILING_POINT/IGNITE_POINT/HEATDAM_POINT greater than 11000 and COLDDAM_POINT less than 11000) are considered fire-safe. Despite this temperature being considered fire-safe, actual fire generates temperatures as high as 11640 °U .Bug:5011
