usually attached to the bearing frame or structure Decorative wall; usually attached to the outside of some load- bearing frame or structure Veneer 200

Wall that supports structural weight Jeff Prokop Load-bearing wall 400

Wall that does not support structural weight Jeff Prokop Non-load bearing wall 600

Freestanding, non- load bearing wall Jeff Prokop Cantilever 800

Load-bearing wall that separates two connected structures Jeff Prokop Party 1000

combustible materials Wall made-up of Non, or limited combustible materials Jeff Prokop Fire Wall 1200

building construction Reason firefighters should study building construction Firefighters know signs of collapse, speed of fire spread, need for evacuation Jeff Prokop 200

3 Construction features assessed in building size-up Built-in fire protection equipment, type of roof covering, types of doors and windows, roof design, age of building, building height, ventilation characteristics, egress path, security measures, type of construction, construction materials, modifications Jeff Prokop 400

Name 4 signs of a building collapse Cracks or separation in walls, floors, ceilings, and roof structures; evidence of existing instability; loose bricks, blocks or stones; deteriorated mortar between masonry; walls that appear to be leaning; structural members that appear to be distorted; fires beneath floors or in walls; unusual creaks or cracking noises; prolonged fire exposure Jeff Prokop 600

Damaged wall that would most concern firefighters: non-load bearing, veneer or Load-bearing, Fire Jeff Prokop Load-Bearing Fire 800

Collapse zone for Building that is 240 feet tall. Jeff Prokop 360 feet 1000

2 fire risks for buildings under construction Additional fire load, and ignition sources; no fire protective features; disable fire protection systems; easy access to building; use of construction machinery Jeff Prokop 1200

Older: exposed to weather; Not maintained; less fire Difference between Older vs. Newer Construction Older: exposed to weather; Not maintained; less fire codes Jeff Prokop 200

Difference between Load vs. non-load Bearing wall Carries weight of wall, non-load bearing does not Jeff Prokop 400

Difference between Fire resistive vs. Non-combustible construction All materials in fire resistive construction are fire resistive; in non-combustible, flat roof is made of limited combustible materials Jeff Prokop 600

Type IV or V Construction Which is more more susceptible to fire spread: Type IV or V Construction Jeff Prokop Type V Construction 800

partition, party, or veneer Which wall is a load-bearing wall: partition, party, or veneer Party Jeff Prokop 1000

of building construction This is the most combustible type of building construction Jeff Prokop What is Type IV Wood Frame 200

This is the formula for measuring a collapse zone Jeff Prokop Y=1 ½ x or Collapse zone= 1.5 x height of building 400
