Lloyd Layman’s book about following considerations needed for analyzing any emergencies situation ?? 5 steps
F, P, Os, D, PoO
Facts , probabilities,own situation,decisions and plan of operation
Factors that need to be considered on arrival at a structure fire are
What happened, what is happening now, what is likely to happen and other resources on scene in route sufficient
Factors I need to be considered during the suppression of a structure fire are
What effects have the initial resources head on the fire, are still more resources needed, are different tactics needed
Incident commander must also consider the following during initial size up
Is immediate intervention needed to save lives, what are risks to firefighters, are they needed resources immediately available or responders be delayed

Common error and establishing perimeter is that
The parameters too small
Unless the water supply is contributing to the fire suppression efforts regarding when to shut off the water supply when do you shut it off
As soon as possible, only reason to delay shutting off the water supply would be because of resource limitations, higher fairground priorities
Forcing open all doors and a burning structure according to SOP’s in some departments is referred to as

Express elevators
The AHJ May have additional documents and or reports for completion depending on incidents are the factors may require additional documents types of reports may be
NFIRS reports, department specific IEP’s, site safety plans, and I am S reports such as ICS208HM, after action report, exposure reports, patient care reports
Some defensive spell control tactics include
Delusion, dispersion, ventilation, Dissolution, neutralization, vapor dispersion and solidification
Differences between adsorption and absorption ?
Molecules of liquid hazardous materials physically adhere To the absorbent material rather than being absorbed into its inner space.
Most PPV blowers position at street level are effective for up to how many floors
22 floors
Curtan boards generally stand a distance of
Equal to at least 20% of the vertical distance from the floor to the roof but not lower than 10 feet above the floor
