Building fires constitute one of the most significant urban disasters, causing substantial losses in human life, property, and socio-economic activities. Bantaeng District, as the administrative and economic center of Bantaeng Regency, exhibits spatial characteristics that may increase the likelihood and impact of building fire incidents. This study aimed to assess the level of building fire disaster risk in Bantaeng District by integrating hazard, vulnerability, and capacity indicators using a Geographic Information System (GIS)-based spatial analysis. The research employed a quantitative approach with a multi-criteria assessment method based on weighted scoring and normalization. Hazard assessment incorporated land use, fire occurrence history, electrical conditions, and stove utilization. Vulnerability assessment comprised social, physical, environmental, and economic dimensions, while capacity assessment included proximity to fire stations, hydrant accessibility, and community participation in fire prevention training and awareness programs. The integration of these components generated a spatial representation of building fire disaster risk across all urban villages in the study area. The results indicate that hazard levels were generally categorized as moderate to high, primarily influenced by previous fire incidents and electrical hazards. Social and physical vulnerabilities were predominantly moderate to high due to high population density, dense built-up areas, and building concentration. Environmental vulnerability varied from low to high depending on water availability and open spaces, whereas economic vulnerability was generally low to moderate, with informal employment serving as the principal contributing factor. Capacity levels were predominantly moderate, although disparities in accessibility to fire stations and community preparedness remained evident. The integration of hazard, vulnerability, and capacity analyses revealed spatial variations in building fire disaster risk among urban villages, indicating the necessity for location-specific mitigation strategies. Strengthening fire protection infrastructure, improving emergency response accessibility, and enhancing community preparedness are recommended to reduce future building fire risk
