Industrial Emergency Services Training: Incipien ... - 36553

Industrial Emergency Services Training: Incipient Level 2nd Edition (2003)

Author/Publisher: IFSTA
ISBN 10: 0-87939-226-6

Although the title has changed to Industrial Emergency Services Training: Incipient Level, this is the 2nd edition IFSTA manual dealing with incipient-level fire protection for industrial occupancies. The scope of this manual is limited to those standards, laws, and regulations that apply to the incipient-level fire brigade member.

NFPA® 600, Standard on Industrial Fire Brigades, and NFPA® 1081, Standard for Industrial Fire Brigade Member Professional Qualifications, are addressed in this manual. These standards outline the general requirements for an organized industrial fire brigade and define the minimum standards and the professional requirements for incipient industrial fire brigade members. However, the functions that the industrial fire brigade will be expected to perform in the workplace are site-specific and will vary from facility to facility and from company to company.

This book is written for industrial emergency services personnel who fight incipient-stage fires and for management personnel who are responsible for developing procedures and training for the industrial fire brigade.

Fire Detection and Suppression Systems ... - 36552

Fire Detection and Suppression Systems 3rd Edition (2005)

Author/Publisher: IFSTA
ISBN 10: 0-87939-267-3

This textbook matches the course outline and objectives identified by the FESHE committee for the Fire Protection Systems core course.

Fire detection and suppression systems include various privately owned devices and equipment that have been installed or located within or about a property to deal with the outbreak of fire. The purpose of these systems is to provide a means by which fires may be prevented or attacked in their incipient phase and/or controlled until public fire suppression services can arrive. Employees who are trained to use these devices or equipment are a critical first step in controlling fires.

This 3rd edition of Fire Detection and Suppression Systems (earlier edition was titled Private Fire Protection and Detection) is designed to provide up-to-date information on fire detection and suppression systems. This manual is intended to familiarize fire service and other interested personnel with hazard recognition, extinguishing agents, detection and alarm systems, fixed extinguishing systems, portable extinguishers, fire behavior, and water supplies for extinguishing systems.

The book is aimed at municipal firefighters, industrial fire protection personnel, and all others seeking additional information in this area.

Fire Service Hydraulics and Water Supply ... - 36540

Fire Service Hydraulics and Water Supply 1st Edition (2004)

Author/Publisher: Michael Wieder
ISBN 10: 0-87939-239-8

This textbook matches the course outline and objectives identified by the FESHE committee for the Fire Protection Hydraulics and Water Supply core course.

A detailed understanding of the physical characteristics of water and the scientific principles of its movement is what sets the true fire protection professional apart from the average firefighter. In addition, firefighters must know where their water supplies are, the capacity of their water supplies, and approximately how much water is needed to extinguish each fire. After covering this background information, the text covers the apparatus and pumps used—the primary “tools of the trade” for the firefighter. Finally, the text covers fire streams and pressure calculations.
