Book excerpt: "Incorporating evidence from case studies and professionals, this paper demonstrates how effectively designed fire stations benefit firefighters' mental and physical health. It argues for implementing necessary spaces and incorporating positive design techniques into every fire station in the United States. Spatial design examples are included to further understand how the aforementioned spatial design and techniques can adequately be implemented in an actual fire station." --page 6.
Download or read book The American Fire Station written by Gerry Souter and published by Motorbooks International. This book was released on 2000 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Now available in paperback, this handsome tribute examines how the constant evolution of an ubiquitous American landmark has been the result of advances in firefighting equipment, namely the fire engine. Today's modern fire stations are a far cry from the early 19th century stables that housed hand pumps and horse-drawn fire wagons. As yesteryear's wooden fire wagons evolved into today's gleaming red fire engines, so too evolved the fire station. A huge collection of historical black-and-white photos is complemented by an impressive selection of crisp, modern color photography featuring shots of restored stations and firefighting equipment, including vehicles, helmets, axes, bells, ladders, and hoses. Even the Dalmatian makes an appearance or two. Stunning visual images also include firefighters battling actual blazes.

Download or read book Designing Fire Stations for the Health Wellness of Firefighters Their Communities written by Katie Jo McCall and published by . This book was released on 2021 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fire departments are making procedural and cultural changes due to the results of research regarding the health effects of carcinogens and firefighters' behavioral health but, where is the change in fire station design? Too many stations fail to control the spread of contaminants, disregard the overall wellbeing of buildging occupants, and lack sufficient space for firefighter personnel training and the use and care of vehicles within the apparatus bay. This leads to the question: How can the design of a fire station positively impact the overall health of not only firefighters, but their communities and the environment? Research has been conducted through interviews with first responders, discussions with architects and interior designers who have fire station design experience, analysis of fire stations and other building types that focus on the occupants' health, and through secondary sources of research conducted and released by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) and National Fire Protection Agency (NFPA). With a functional, yet creative, approach, focused on the overall wellbeing of the station's occupants, a new design solution is proposed. This thesis argues that we must re-imagine fire station design to enhance the overall health, wellbeing, and safety of firefighters, their communities, and the environment.

Download or read book Fire Crime Accident written by Chris van Uffelen and published by Braun Publishing AG. This book was released on 2012 with total page 255 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Buildings for emergency services have evolved into an independent and fascinating architectural typology in the past two decades. Since the opening of the spectacular fire station for the Vitra factory by Zaha Hadid, police stations, fire departments and rescue services increasingly consist of architecturally amazing buildings. These are always an attractive challenge - when functional demands and high security measures are brought in sync with stylish modern design, the results reflect the highest levels of architectural skills. All three building types share the fact that they act as starting points for quick motorized dispatches. The featured buildings sometimes combine several institutions that are creatively situated under a single roof. The selected examples present the wonderful diversity of contemporary "emergency architecture". The range extends from the rural two-bay fire station via the metropolitan police headquarters to the helicopter rescue center.
