28
Q

defined as any kind of combustible material characterized by its moisture content, size, shape, quantity.

A

Fuel

29
Q

This supports the chemical processes that occur during fire. It makes up 21 percent of air in which most fires requires 16 percent only of it to burn

A

Oxygen

30
Q

responsible for the initial ignition of fire, and is also needed to maintain the fire and enable it to spread

A

heat

31
Q

Fire class: involves ordinary combustible materials such as wood, cloth, rubber, and plastics.

A

Class A

32
Q

Fire class: involves flammable liquids and gases

A

Class B

33
Q

Fire class: involves energized electrical equipment

A

Class C

34
Q

Fire class: involves combustible materials (metals) such as sodium, magnesium, potassium, and other similar materials

A

Class D

35
Q

Fire class: involves combustible cooking media found in various cooking appliances or kitchen medium such as vegetable or animal oils and fats

A

Class K

36
Q

aims to protect occupants and a building through containment of fire and smoke. These systems are always present, and take no additional actions to activate in the event of a fire

A

Passive Fire Protection System

37
Q

one way of passively protecting a building from fire since the common mode of fire spread in a compartmentalized building is through open doors, open spaces

A

Compartmentation

38
Q

defines the ability of the compartment boundaries to resist fire is dependent on their integrity and fire resistance rating as determined by structural components and architectural finishes of a building.

A

Fire resistance

39
Q

defines the degree on how a structural member can withstand being affected by burning

A

Fire Resistive Rating or Fire Resistive Time Period

40
Q

defines the degree on how architectural finishes can withstand being affected by burning

A

Flame Spread Rating or surface burning characteristics

41
Q

common reason for failure of compartmentation to contain a fire is due to

A

openings in the compartment

42
Q

an essential apect in passive fire protection.

A

protection of structural elements

43
Q

consists of those take an additional action to activate in the event of a fire.

A

Active Fire Protection Systems

44
Q

uses smoke detector or smoke alarm to detect fire before it actually starts

A

Fire Detection Systems

45
Q

sensing devices when activated, signal remote alarm panels and notification devices to go into alarm and perform certain actions

A

Smoke Detectors

46
Q

devices that contain both sensing components as well as a notifcation component in the same housing

A

Smoke Alarms

47
Q

a fire detector that detects either an abnormally high temperature or rate of temperature rise, or both.

A

Heat detector

48
Q

number of devices working together to detect and warn people through visual and audio when smoke or fire is present

49
Q

fire alrm system classifcation:

50
Q

by putting out fires though entinguishment mechanisms using its fire suppression agents

A

fire suppression system

51
Q

by reducing the amount heat in the combustion zone

A

Cooling: Heat Reduction

52
Q

by reducing the amount of oxygen that is available to the fire

A

Smothering: Oxygen Deprivation

53
Q

removing fuel available to the combustion also extinguishes fire

54
Q

fire suppression agents classification:

A

aqueous and non-aqueous agents

55
Q

contain water under pressure at all times and utilize a series of closed sprinklers, automatic water supply is mandated and immediately discharges from the open sprinklers

A

Wet Pipe Systems

56
Q

contain no water but rather is charged with air or nitrogen under pressure, Once the air pressure falls below a predetermined level, the dry pipe valve opens, allowing water to flow through the system to the open sprinklers

A

Dry Pipe Systems

57
Q

similar to a dry pipe system, however associated with preaction system piping charged with air under pressure rather than water. Water will not discharge from the system until a fire has generated a sufficient quantity of heat to cause operation of one or more sprinklers.
