According to me, Shesham is the right answer.

All mentioned Options Come under Hardwood. But They all have different weights. More weight allow them for more Fire Resistant.

Chir= 560 Kg/m^3.
Teak=760 kg/m^3.
Sal= 800 kg/m^3.
Shishum=880 kg/m^3.

So, Shisham will be the Correct answer.

Teak is the most appropriate among all other woods against termites because it is not only termite resistance but also kills it.

Sal wood is 25% to 30% heavier than teak wood and 45% to 50% harder and more durable than teak. It is resistant to white ants, termites and fungi. It is durable and water resistant.
