Chapters 23 and 24 meet the First Responder Awareness and Operations Levels for Responders according to NFPA® 472: Standard for Competence of Responders to Hazardous Materials/Weapons of Mass Destruction Incidents, 2012 Edition and OSHA 1910.120. The chapters also provide validated content to meet Section 6.6, Mission-Specific Competencies: Product Control, of NFPA® 472. The hazardous materials information is adapted from the IFSTA Hazardous Materials for First Responders, 4th Edition.
Download or read book Structural Fire Fighting written by Abrams, Alex and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 403 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: " ... Be a better decision maker and incident commander at structure fires! This all new book provides strategy and tactics for the incident commander arriving at structure fire incidents using the available responding resources. Learn to assess the fire situation, initiate a command structure, and deploy resources until the transfer of command or termination of the incident. The NEW fire dynamics content includes the latest research on fire behavior from UL and NIST with all new photographs and drawings that illustrate these new fire science concepts. Read and see the new science so that you can apply it to structure fires. Strategies and tactics from national experts are presented and applied to hypothetical structure fire scenarios throughout the book. The target audience is all career and volunteer personnel who respond to single and multifamily dwellings incidents, commercial occupancies, and unique target or special hazards events. The manual meets the requirements of the FESHE course outcomes for the Associates level course, "Strategies and Tactics." This manual also broadens the knowledge of the strategy and tactics JPR's in NFPA®1021, Standard for Fire Officer Professional Qualifications. The manual is the best choice for use in training agencies, college degree programs, and as a resource for firefighters and fire officers who serve as, or are training to be, incident commanders. Additional standards referenced in the manual include NFPA 920, 921, 400. Each of the last three (3) chapters include five (5) training scenarios that reflect real incidents that an incident commander will find when responding to a residential structure, a commercial structure fire and a structure fire with special hazards."
Download or read book Structural Fire Engineering written by Kevin J. LaMalva and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Prepared by the Fire Protection Committee of the Structural Engineering Institute of ASCE Structural Fire Engineering provides best practices for the field of performance-based structural fire engineering design. When structural systems are heated by fire, they experience thermal effects that are not contemplated by conventional structural engineering design. Traditionally, structural fire protection is prescribed for structures after they have been optimized for ambient design loads, such as gravity, wind, and seismic, among others. This century-old prescriptive framework endeavors to reduce the heating of individual structural components with the intent of mitigating the risk of structural failure under fire exposure. Accordingly, the vulnerability of buildings to structural failure from uncontrolled fire varies across jurisdictions-which have differing structural design requirements for ambient loads-and as a function of building system and component configuration. As an alternative approach, Standard ASCE 7-16 permits the application of performance-based structural fire design (also termed structural fire engineering design) to evaluate the performance of structural systems explicitly under fire exposure in a similar manner as other design loads are treated in structural engineering practice. Structural fire engineering design is the calculated design of a structure to withstand the thermal load effects of fire, which have the potential to alter the integrity of a structure, based on specific performance criteria. This manual, MOP 138, addresses the current practice, thermal and structural analysis methods, and available information to support structural fire engineering design. It covers - Background information on the protection of structures from fire and the effects of fire on different types of construction, - Key distinctions between standard fire resistance design and structural fire engineering design, - Guidance for evaluating thermal boundary conditions on a structure because of fire exposure and on conducting heat transfer calculations based on the material thermal properties, - Performance objectives for structures under fire exposure, and - Analysis techniques that can be used to quantify structural response to fire effects. This Manual of Practice is a valuable resource for structural engineers, architects, building officials, and academics concerned with performance-based design for structural fire safety.
Download or read book Fire and Emergency Services Company Officer written by IFSTA and published by . This book was released on 2014-11-14 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This new IFSTA manual details the training required of Company Officers according to NFPA® 1021, Standard for Fire Officer Professional Qualifications, 2014 Edition. The manual is divided into two sections to make a clear distinction between the information needed for Fire Officer Level I and Fire Officer Level II. Both print and eBook formats are available. There is no shortage of issues that a company officer might face in the everyday operation of a fire company or unit. This manual addresses the wide range of topics and issues encountered by a company officer, from leadership and supervision to health and safety issues. Great attention was given to focus on the job performance requirements of NFPA® 1021. The fifth edition of Fire and Emergency Services Company Officer builds on the previous edition of the manual while presenting the material in a more concise manner to make it easier for students to read and instructors to teach. By merging related topics, the number of chapters was reduced from 32 in the fourth edition to 17 in the new manual while preserving the material related to the NFPA® standard. The number of appendices was reduced from 20 to 4 by removing information that can be found in other media. Along with reducing the volume of material from the fourth edition, the fifth edition of Fire and Emergency Services Company Officer offers several new features. The manual features a new look with IFSTA’s single-column format and upgraded and updated curriculum components. Learning activities are included to help instructors present the material to their students. Case Histories open each chapter to illustrate important lessons learned in the real world. Photographs, illustrations, and tables are included throughout the manual to illustrate key points and improve the overall instructional value of the material.
