    Study Notes

    Air Management

    • The primary goal is to avoid Hazardous Atmosphere/Immediate Danger to Life and Health (IDLH) atmosphere before the low air alarm is activated.
    • Crew members must constantly monitor their air status and that of their teams.
    • Air levels should be checked when entering a new area or floor.
    • A pre-entry exit strategy should be identified by the company.
    • Consider transitioning out of operations when the air is at 50% cylinder capacity (2250 PSI).

    Tactical Objectives

    • Size-up the situation to determine the probable location and type of fire, smoke conditions, access, and possible ventilation points.
    • Identify occupants and possible assignments to other units.
    • Confining the fire involves placing a hoseline between the fire and known or potential occupants.
    • Do not delay water application to ensure the line is between occupants and the fire.
    • Extinguish the fire by selecting the proper hoseline and nozzle combination and efficiently deploying the line.
    • Protect exposures by eliminating fire extension and evacuating occupants.
    • Exposures refer to both interior and exterior areas that may be affected by an expanding fire.
    • When assigned to "Exposures," prioritize life safety and then fire spread.
    • For interior exposures, a Primary Search is expected to be included.
    • Provide a water supply through the appropriate use of hydrants, standpipes, and sprinkler systems.
    • The Engineer should inform Command when a water supply is established.
