MFA＃5：保持最新 - 在哪里看教科书错了

New information regarding both fire behavior and making fire behave (AKA firefighting) is coming out faster than it can be delivered to the end user: firefighters. This is due to both the tremendous volume of data and interpretations thereof, as well as the limitations on the ability to effectively process, catalog, and communicate - that is, teach - the new concepts and approaches resulting from the research. Sorting through the reams of findings already published on the subject of fire dynamics requires a significant investment of time and effort, even as more material continues to be be produced. That said, as professionals, it is our obligation to become familiar with this information (see MFA #3: Check for Yourself; Please!).

这种无法快速地传播这种新知识并不仅仅是学术问题：每天有超过1300个结构火灾，每个结构都有伤害或死亡的潜力，对平民和消防员来说，需要确定和利用最佳策略是深刻的实用;甚至批评。此外，由研究引起的火灾控制建议仅仅超出了我们的各种理论和策略，包括强大的推动即时水应用，并且同样强壮的推动，但在相反的方向（即逆转先前的实践）关于通风（见MFA＃4：新规则）。我们需要了解这些更改，相应地修改我们的消防实践，并完美地执行它们，以便为客户（乘客和所有者）和我188金博网网址多少们自己提供最佳保护。

依靠其他人总结和解释这些信息，同时有效地携带自己的风险。像其他每个受试者一样，不是关于消防动力学的一切都是准确的。例如，在研究这篇博客时，我从几年从几个消防服务杂志中审查了文章，许多人在我们的职业中受到尊敬的作者写的许多，这提供了广泛的研究结果印象。一些早期的解释最终是不合适的，通常是因为他们努力使实验数据适合长期信念或支持受欢迎的方法。我不断阅读现在验证的事实并犹豫不决的事实，或部分地审视他们，如果你决定从外面的火上浇油，请了解可能是可能的受害者的潜在影响被困在里面“。当然，我们知道这些效果是什么：条件改善。

时间我们可以参考消防教科书188金博网网址多少as the definitive source for guidance in providing direction or settling disagreements. They remain relevant for most topics, specifically task-level and strategic issues, but have significant shortfalls in the area of fire dynamics and structural fire suppression techniques. Given that it takes years to write, edit, and publish a training text, while the seminal UL ventilation studies were just published, and the Governors Island experiments performed, in 2012, there are currently no textbooks to which one can turn to settle an argument about fire control tactics in buildings, at least not accurately. Even fire service periodicals have a significant lag. For instance, I submitted an article for publication in Fire Engineering this past June, received prompt acceptance after some needed editing, and should see it in the December edition - a 6-month gestation, not counting the months of research and writing I already invested. Though the internet offers the promise of shorter laboratory-to-publication times, one which this writer is currently taking full advantage of, with speed comes hazards - the potential for poorly researched, biased, or frankly false material.

Fortunately, Jones & Bartlett Learning, LLC, publisher of training manuals on a wide variety of subjects for the fire service, has provided a ready solution to our need for current and accurate information on fire dynamics. “Evidence-Based Practices for Strategic Based Firefighting” is a supplement to their “Fundamentals of Fire Skills, Third Edition”, available in electronic format, and easily accessed on the internet. Created in collaboration with the NFPA and IAFC just this year, in it can be found summaries of the latest fire dynamics research, and the recommended practice modifications that resulted.

现在，当您在与您的辩论中与您的Firefighters从事策略更好的辩论时，或者博主与准确信息相关的辩论中，您有一个参考，至少一些时间来解决争端。花时间阅读它，然后我们都可以拥有更明智的对话。
