The Fire Triangle Heat Fuel Oxygen

Fire Chemistry Classes of fire: A: Ordinary combustibles B: Flammable and combustible liquids C: Energized electrical equipment D: Combustible metals

Reducing Fire Hazards in Home and Workplace Avoid the “electrical octopus.” Don’t run cords under carpets. Replace broken or frayed cords. Maintain appliances.

Reducing Fire Hazards in Home and Workplace Install a natural gas detector. Locate and label gas shutoffs.

Reducing Fire Hazards in Home and Workplace Read labels. Use L.I.E.S. storage procedures (Limit, Isolate, Eliminate, Separate).

CERT sizeup Answer these questions: Can my buddy and I fight the fire safely? Do we have the right equipment? Are there other hazards? Is the building structurally damaged? Can we escape?

CERT Sizeup Gather Facts. Assess Damage. Consider Probabilities. Assess Your Situation. Establish Priorities. Make Decisions. Develop Plans of Action . Take Action. Evaluate Progress.

Firefighting Resources Resources available: Portable fire extinguishers Wet standpipes Confinement “Creative” resources

Types of Fire Extinguishers Water Dry chemical Carbon dioxide Specialized fire extinguisher
