Suburbia, with its mix of single-family homes, apartments, row houses, balloon and lightweight construction, light industry, strip malls, mega malls, gas stations, and even power plants,is the focus of this column. Suburbs bring to mind quiet, sleepy little towns, but, in reality, the “burbs” contain a wide variety of fire hazards with which firefighters must contend.

This columnwill concisely examine hazards that will challenge you as a suburban firefighter. One short column cannot make you an expert, but it can is hit the most important points from an operational perspective to help improve your performance on the fireground. This is take-with-you information for your next fire–tactics and strategies to fine-tune your skills and your department’s efficiency.
房子开火
Suburban firefighters are called to a variety of hazards and alarms.您如何组织自己并优先考虑我们的培训和计划以使您的部门和您自己有效高效?查看所有电话,确定人们垂死的地方,受伤以及对您和您的消防员的最大威胁。对于郊区消防员来说,警报是常见的日常房屋大火。
让我们从房屋起火开始。通过“开始,”我的意思是,我们必须充分准备对这种火灾有效做出反应,以确保我们能够为居民做最多的(通常是有限的人员),并尽可能安全,同时在火场上采取明智的风险。您的标准操作程序(SOP)是否正确且最新?您是否进行了全面现场直播training? Do you have a standard search and rescue plan? Have you identified lightweight and balloonconstructionin your first-due area?
我们错误地将房屋大火视为理所当然。如何significant are house fires to suburban departments? Here are the facts, according to the U.S. Fire Administration (USFA).
1. Residential structure fires outnumber all other结构火,三到一。
2.在美国的平均一天,大火中八名或九名平民灭亡,大部分是受伤的他们在自己的家中。那是每三个小时一次火灾死亡。
3. The National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) estimates that 83 percent of all civilian fire deaths and 77 percent of civilian injuries从住宅结构中发生火灾。
4.这些死亡人数最大(76%)是一户和两户住宅。
5. Multifamily occupancies account for only 17 percent of the overall deathsfrom fire annually.
6. Home fires cause roughly $200 in damage每一秒of every day.
7. Residential structure fires (in 2005) cost our nation $6.9 billion. Single-family and duplex homes accounted for 75 percent of this cost.
8.根据美国消防局的报告“ 2008年美国的消防员死亡”,在结构火灾现场时,有21名消防员在致命或受伤。这些事件中有71%发生在住宅物业。
9.在消防员受伤方面,在国家一级观看时,房屋大火的影响是压倒性的。2004年,在住宅物业中,有76%的消防员受伤发生。总体而言,住宅物业占所有消防员受伤的68%。一户和两户住所受伤的消防员的数量同样出色:2004年受伤的所有消防员中有59%在一户和两户住宅大火中受伤。有趣的是,公寓和行房仅占15%根据USFA的说法,受伤,这一比例几乎一直保持不变。
10. To really understand the operational hazards of我们面对的房屋读书,阅读了美国国家职业安全与健康研究所(NIOSH)消防员死亡报告。这些简短但全面的报告包含有关昂贵的错误(或火山错误序列)的大量信息,这些信息导致消防员死亡。这些报告很棒,不怪。取而代之的是,经过仔细的调查,他们揭示了一系列事件(现场可能尚不知道的事件),这些事件与其他事件一起导致了一个或多个消防员的致命结果。我们必须分享这些消防员的经验,以保护我们自己的经验并确保他们不会徒劳地死亡。
Suburban firefighters face the huge challenge of house fires. Often, we respond with few personnel and a limited water supply and encounter complex rescue and fire attack situations. Clearly, the house fire is平民和消防员的第一杀手。这是我们最重要的警报。我们必须将房屋大火视为我们最危险的警报,我们必须训练并做好充分的准备以对其做出回应。
The next few columns will focus on specific tactics and strategies for the deadly house火。我们还将查看您将面临的常见警报的其他重要类型的呼叫和操作策略和策略。
