Expected Firefighter Interaction with the F The Development of F IRST ISION IRST ISION After verifying the building and seeing fire location, the Commander radios firefighting team. As he calls, he continues observation: seconds – Checks layouts of other floors and the roof (as shown in the example in Figure 5.2) to be sure the fire is contained on only those levels.
The Development of F Expected Firefighter Interaction with the F IRST ISION IRST ISION The Commander begins directing the team how to attack the fire: where to enter the building, how to approach the fire area, where to get water, how to vent the fire. seconds The Commander notes that no windows have blown out.
Expected Firefighter Interaction with the F The Development of F IRST ISION IRST ISION Fire Scene 2 In this scenario, the fire is near the front of the building and the main entrance drive, so trucks can be positioned easily. If the fire occurred in a back corner or the far side of the building, the Incident Commander would use the Building Site plan to see safe routes for driving the trucks closer to the fire (as shown in the example in Figure 5.5).
The Development of F Expected Firefighter Interaction with the F IRST ISION IRST ISION If hazardous materials were stored near the fire, the Commander would touch the Hazard icon to see what the materials were and how to handle fire in the area (as shown in the example in Figure 5.6).
Expected Firefighter Interaction with the F The Development of F IRST ISION IRST ISION If the materials were unfamiliar, the Commander could touch the Contact button to see the on call number for the State Hazardous Material expert (as shown in the example in Figure 5.7). That expert would advise the team of dangers, or come personally to the scene.
