3-Lesson Plan- Skill sheet Hose deployment Flashcards
According to the lesson plan on Hose Deployment, What is the primary purpose of the Half Shoulder technique in hose deployment?
A. To extend the hose to its full length
B. To ensure easy nozzle operation
C. To manage the hose load effectively while moving
D. To prevent water from leaking out of the hose
c
Half Shoulder
Places Nozzle half of the hose load on the shoulder, ensuringthat the front third of the load is in front of their body.
Turns towards the load shoulder to prevent SCBA
entanglement
Grasps mid-bight and dump bight of the remaining load
Pulls hose in direction of travel until the hose bed is cleared, drops the dump bight
Continues walking, dropping mid-bight on the ground when required
According to the lesson plan on Hose Deployment, During the Half Shoulder technique, what is important to prevent SCBA entanglement?
A. Holding the nozzle tightly
B. Keeping the hose completely straight
C. Turning towards the load shoulder
D. Walking at a steady pace
C
Half Shoulder
Places Nozzle half of the hose load on the shoulder, ensuring
that the front third of the load is in front of their body.
Turns towards the load shoulder to prevent SCBA
entanglement
Grasps mid-bight and dump bight of the remaining load
Pulls hose in direction of travel until the hose bed is
cleared, drops the dump bight
Continues walking, dropping mid-bight on the ground
when required
According to the lesson plan on Hose Deployment, In the Accordion Forward technique, what should the firefighter do after performing the Half Shoulder skill?
A. Grasp the nozzle and mid-bight(s) and drop the hose load off the shoulder
B. Immediately start spraying water
C. Tie a knot in the hose for better grip
D. Run towards the fire
A
Accordion Forward
Performs Half Shoulder skill effectively
Grasps nozzle with the hand on the hose load side
Grasps the mid-bight(s) with the opposite hand
Drops the hose load off the shoulder while keeping hold
of nozzle and bight(s)
Walks nozzle and bights to the entry point
Ensures nozzle and first coupling is at the entry point
According to the lesson plan on Hose Deployment, What is the main difference of the Centre Reverse technique in hose deployment?
A. To quickly extinguish the fire
B. To ensure the hose is sufficiently deployed for fire suppression
C. Nozzle is Dropped at the entry point
D. To cool down the surrounding area
C
Centre Reverse
Performs the Half Shoulder skill effectively
Drops the shouldered load at the entry point
Leaves Nozzle at the entry point
Grasps one mid-bight and walks them away from the
entry until the hose is sufficiently deployed
Returns to the nozzle at the entry point
According to the lesson plan on Hose Deployment, In the V-Split technique, why is the hose load split at its mid-point?
A. To make it easier to identify the 2 halves
B. To connect to another hose
C. To ensure proper deployment near the entry point
D. To reduce water pressure
A
Drops the bundle a minimum of 3m (10ft) from the entry
point, keeping hold of the 2 halves
Keeping a hold of the 2 halves, turns their back on the
entry point
Continue to step backwards to straighten out the bundle
ends
Set the 2 halves down at the entry-point
According to the lesson plan on Hose Deployment, How far from the entry point should the bundle be dropped in the V-Split technique?
A. At least 1 meter (3 feet)
B. At least 2 meters (6 feet)
C. At least 3 meters (10 feet)
D. At least 4 meters (13 feet)
C
Drops the bundle a minimum of 3m (10ft) from the entry
point, keeping hold of the 2 halves
Keeping a hold of the 2 halves, turns their back on the
entry point
Continue to step backwards to straighten out the bundle
ends
Set the 2 halves down at the entry-point
According to the lesson plan on Hose Deployment, When advancing with an attack line, what is crucial for effective water application?
A. High water pressure
B. Quick movement
C. Strategic placement and movement of the nozzle
D. Using as much water as possible
C
According to the lesson plan on Hose Deployment, Why is it essential to ensure the nozzle and first coupling are at the entry point in hose deployment techniques?
A. To facilitate quick retreat if necessary
B. To prevent the hose from tangling
C. For efficient and ready use of the hose in the operation
D. To mark the entry point for other team members
B
According to the lesson plan on Hose Deployment, When a firefighter ‘grasps mid-bight and dump bight of the remaining load’ in the Half Shoulder technique, what is the main objective?
A. To ensure hose is pulled clear of truck bed
B. To balance the weight of the hose
C. To prepare for rapid deployment
D. To adjust the hose length according to the fire’s intensity
A
Grasps mid-bight and dump bight of the remaining load
Pulls hose in direction of travel until the hose bed is cleared, drops the dump bight
