Question 8:
Operation of the aerial ladder “ladder pipe” may be necessary under certain circumstances. In which choice below would fire units be acting inappropriately?

A: If the street has a severe crown, check both Inclinometers. Both bubbles must be in the GREEN ZONE. If in the RED ZONE, level apparatus or, if necessary, reposition.

B:For horizontal sweep, operate the turntable slowly and smoothly. This is done by feathering the turntable controls. For more control, the throttle control switch can be disengaged; this will reduce the speed of the ladder.

C: It is of utmost importance that interior forces be removed from the area into which the ladder pipe will operate. This is the responsibility of the Incident Commander. Handi-Talkie communication facilitates this removal.

D:Even after confirmation of the withdrawal of members from the area, as a warning, sweep the stream vertically and into windows, stopping at windows with visible fire.

A

d Explanation:

Question 16:
Hoseline operations can be quite complex when operating at a cockloft fire in a taxpayer. Which choice below is incorrect?

A: When fire has control of the cockloft and the need for exposure protection is critical, position the 1st Engine to utilize the deckpipe. In-line pumping will give good positioning and allow room for placement of a Tower Ladder.

B:The 1st Engine should stretch a handline into the most seriously exposed occupancy/building, depending on the life hazard and location and severity of the fire. When exposures are not an immediate problem, then the 1st line should be directed to operate onto the exterior of the fire building to control possible extension.

C: When fire has control of the cockloft, and the need for exposure protection is critical, the 2nd Engine should assist the 1st Engine with the initial line. When staffing and conditions permit, stretch a line into another seriously exposed building/occupancy and operate into the cockloft to confine and extinguish the fire. It may be advisable to skip stores in order to confine a cockloft fire.

D: The 3rd Engine should ensure the sprinkler system is supplied. Stretch a line and operate as ordered by the Incident Commander.

A

b Explanation:
When exposures are not an immediate problem, then the 1st line should be stretched into the store under the main body of fire and operated to extinguish the fire.

Question 17:
Which tactic is incorrect when a burst length of hose is suspected/confirmed.

A: An indication of a burst length is when the engine officer reports there is little or no water and the ECC sees an adequate pressure reading and an increased flow showing on the outlet flowmeter with the pumps RPMs increasing automatically

B:Once a water loss due to a burst length is confirmed by any member, a “Mayday” message shall be transmitted

C: Once the location is verified and after the water has been shut down, there are 2 ways to correct a burst length. 1) If enough hose is available, remove the burst length and reattach the existing couplings. 2) Replace the burst length with a new length of hose, when there is not enough existing hose available in the stretch

D: Once the burst length has been replaced, the engine officer is notified and in turn notifies the ECC to start water. The engine officer must notify the IC and all units on the fire floor and floors above when the problem is corrected

Question 22:
Members of a busy Bronx Ladder Company were discussing the features of large, H-type buildings. Which discussion point was not entirely correct?

A: Steel, when heated, expands and substantial elongation can occur at a fire. This elongation can cause a wall to bulge, move, or even collapse, if the steel is set within the wall.

B: Steel girders are horizontal structural members designed in an “I” shape; they are also known as “I” beams. “I” beams will transmit fire, heat or smoke horizontally into adjoining areas.

C:Steel columns are vertical structural members designed in an “H” shape; they are also known as channel rails. When located in the inner framework of a building, they may extend from the cellar up to the top floor. The space between the enclosing wood framework and column often contains firestopping which prevents heat and smoke from reaching the top floor.

D: Steel, when heated to higher temperatures during a fire, may fail. Floor beams supported by such failing steel will fall to the floor below.

c Explanation:
When located in the inner framework of a building, they may extend from the FIRST FLOOR up into the ROOF SPACE or COCKLOFT AREA. The space between the enclosing wood framework and column leads up into the cockloft and many times SPREADS fire, heat or smoke to this roof space.

Q

Question 25:
When it comes to Loft buildings, which definition is incorrect?

A:Synthetic Walls are partition walls that separate living space between apartment units

B:Quoins are used by architects to give the impression of strength and firmness to the outline of the building . They provide FFs with a visual contrasting feature to neighboring buildings on Exposures 2 and 4 allowing members to accurately discern the width of the fire building

C: Wrought-Iron Girders unlike cast-iron, which is strong in compression but weak in tension, wrought-iron is equally strong in compression and tension making it a logical substitute in the mid-19th century for horizontal structural elements

D: Sawtooth Roofs are roofs that will impose unique obstacles to FFs regarding roof access, egress, extinguishment, and vertical ventilation. maneuvering up and over the peaks and valleys of sawtooth roofs will be difficult at best, even under non-fire conditions. Mill sawtooths are typically of wood truss design. A steel cable, however, may be substituted for the bottom chord. Sawtooth roofs of steel and/or reinforced concrete construction can also be found in fireproof lofts

A

a Explanation:
Synthetic Walls are low level windows that provide excellent openings for access, egress, ventilation, and hose stream/foam delivery. Synthetic walls may be covered with cast-iron plating, metal grilling, masonry or plywood for security reasons

Question 26:
Transitioning from an interior to exterior attack is a critical duty of the Incident Commander, when necessary. Which of the following is incorrect?

B: Coordinate Ladder, Rescue and Squad evacuation with the withdrawal of Engine Companies operating handlines.

C:The withdrawal shall always be under control of a single IC and never delegated.

D: Contact the Roof Sector Supervisor to ensure members on the roof are in the process of withdrawing. If there is no Roof Sector Supervisor assigned, then the IC should make contact with other member(s) operating on the roof to ensure they are withdrawing.

A

c Explanation:
The withdrawal of specific sectors may be delegated to a Sector Chief, (e.g. Roof Sector Supervisor, Exposure 2 Sector Supervisor, etc.). The IC will confirm the Sectors are transitioning to an exterior attack.

Question 30:
Deputy Chief Smith stopped by a Staten Island firehouse for drill on private dwelling operations. Testing the members of this company following the drill, he wanted them to identify which incorrect comment?

A:Due to the number of firefighters that may be needed for portable ladder rescue and the number of sleeping areas that may have to be entered and searched, it is good practice to special call an additional Engine and Ladder Company for a fire in a Queen Anne building.

B: Some private dwellings originally built as one family dwellings have been modified to include separate apartments and are occupied by more than one family. Others were built as two family dwellings. Because of their status as two family dwellings, two separate living areas will be found and in most cases, the first and second floors are occupied by separate families with bedrooms on both floors.

C:In a two family private dwelling, access to the second floor is via an enclosed stairway. Because the stairs to the second floor are enclosed, there will not be the initial rapid buildup of smoke on the second floor.

D: It is critical at cellar fires that the first Ladder inside team operate in a manner that supports the first hoseline in quickly applying water on the fire. Often, the cellar stair is narrow, confined and problematic for Ladder members to descend without the protection of a hoseline.

A

a Explanation:
Due to the number of firefighters that may be needed for portable ladder rescue and the number of sleeping areas that may have to be entered and searched, it is good practice to special call an additional LADDER Company for a fire in a Queen Anne building.
