Tactical Ops and the New Rules of Combat Fire Engagement
This session will present the new rules of combat structural fire engagement and provide insights into integrated command and operational risk management, tactical safety and tactical protocols based on occupancy risks versus occupancy type. Building and occupancy profiling requires knowledge of emerging construction methods, features, systems and components. Coupled with the increasing commonality of extreme fire behavior and the increased fire load package, these factors require new skill sets in reading the building and implementing predictive occupancy profiling to determine appropriate tactics for firefighters, company and command officers.
The class will examine case studies, history-repeating events, the latest testing and research findings on vent path theory, fire behavior, structural system integrity, wind driven fire theory and fire suppression theory, and engage students through interactive exercises and group discussions.
- When: Saturday, November 5 – 1:30p – 3:30p
- Also featuring Chris Naum: Reading the Building: Predictive Occupancy Profiling
Reading the Building: Predictive Occupancy Profiling
Presented by Christopher J. Naum
Chief of Training, Command Institute, DC
Today’s buildings and occupancies continue to present unique challenges to command and operating companies during combat structural fire engagement. Building and occupancy profiling, identifying occupancy risk versus occupancy type, emerging construction methods, features, systems and components coupled with the increasing commonality of extreme fire behavior and the increased fire load package require new skill sets in reading the building and implementing predictive occupancy profiling for firefighters, company and command officers. Integral to the presentation will be detailed discussions on building and structural system placarding methods and labeling programs.
- When: Sunday, November 6 – 10:10a – Noon
- Also from Chris Naum: Tactical Ops and the New Rules of Combat Fire Engagement
