Study Notes

Bowstring Truss/Arched Roof Policy

A defensive strategy is prioritized when fire is detected in the attic or truss space, allowing crews to search the building safely.
If the fire is not located and safety permits, a rapid search of the premises is essential while maintaining a defensive approach.
In cases where fire impacts a room and its contents without signs of spreading to the attic or truss space, an immediate and aggressive offensive strategy should be employed.
