Building Construction for Today’s Fire Service

Today’s buildings and occupancies present increasing challenges that

have redefined strategic and tactical fireground operations and impact these operations on a wide variety of levels that often include adverse compartment fire conditions, structural compromise, collapse and predicable building performance. Presenting insights on building construction for today’s fire service, the primary objective of this program is to increase awareness and understandings and promote new skill sets in the fundamentals of building construction, architecture, engineering and design that directly impact firefighting operations at structure fires.

Five fundamental areas integrating building and construction methodologies, will be threaded throughout the program related to Construction Systems, Occupancy Risks, Collapse & Compromise Characteristics, Methods & Materials and Fire Dynamics related to building anatomy, vintage and intrinsic building and occupancy characteristics assimilating comprehensive case studies, history repeating events, research findings and emerging fire suppression theory will be presented.

Rebooting Old School Principles for Today’s Demanding Fireground Much is being debated related to tactics, methodologies, practices and the learnings gleaned from emerging research and insights. What has today’s fireground evolved into when we talk about traditional firefighting operations and engagement? Has it remained constant-Has it changed? Do we continue to operate utilizing time proven methodologies or are we prepared to identify new adaptive methodologies and practices? Rebooting old school principals while incorporating lessons from the fireground, learnings from research and the improved understanding of the

fireground and our buildings is paramount to operational excellence.

.

Buildings on Fire: Lessons from the Fireground 2016

This program will present and lead through past History Repeating (HRE) Events and present leading insights and findings from pertinent case studies, NIOSH LODD Investigative Reports and After Actions Reports from select incidents for a facilitated examination of apparent and contributing factors and an analysis and review of recommendations and actions to preclude similar events on the local and regional level. Elements of effective and adaptive fireground leadership and the hard lessons learned will be presented in this highly interactive program. Extensive case studies are reviewed and applied to identify local and regional gaps and vulnerabilities and development of suggested corrective actions to preclude similar events. Integrated in the program will be discussions on emerging

research can its effect on future strategies and tactics. Lessons from the fireground resonate with recommendations and actions that all fire departments and personnel must recognize and implement in future fireground operations in order to reduce operational risks and improve incident mitigation and structure fires.

Fireground Leadership for Command & Company Officers Fireground Leadership on today’s demanding fireground leaves negligible margin for errors or omissions requiring the accurate identification of probable incident risks, development of plans and the execution of tactical deployments with the highest degree of proficiencies and skill sets under the most challenging of operational demands and personnel risks. This program presents insights into emerging concepts and methodologies related to today’s unique challenges for combat structural fire engagement requiring new strategic, tactical and operational modeling due to rapid fire behavior, building construction

and occupancy risk and the need for new training and operational requirements for firefighters, company and command officers. Fireground Leadership has many forms and layers: identify the mission critical elements required today to meet tomorrow’s incident responses and demands that will directly influence operational success. Fire Chiefs, officers and firefighters operating at structure fires must have an understanding of the building, the compartment and the fire company member’s skills, knowledge and abilities to effectively integrate and mitigate an incident that integrates safe and aggressive firefighting, predictive risk management and tactical discipline associated with three primary areas associated with the Building, Compartment, Company for operational excellence.

The Dynamic Fireground: Integrating Building, Compartment and Company for Operational Excellence

In the realm of Structural Firefighting, Fundamental to today’s challenging and evolving fireground are the integral functional elements of; The Building, The Compartment and The Company. Each has profound influences on the ability of an organization and personnel to effectively engage and operate at buildings on fire and to ensure that effective strategic and tactical operations are undertaken and executed effectively and safely. These three domains must be assimilated and aligned in all facets of preparedness, training and operational deployment. This program will provide an understanding on how to achieve increased operational effectiveness and safety on today’s dynamic fireground while integrating

emerging research without foregoing time proven principles and practices.

Operational Excellence on Today’s Evolving Fireground

Integrated leading insights and emerging concepts and methodologies related to fireground tactical theory, suppression needs for effective combat operations and methodologies for operational excellence and firefighter safety. This is an interactive and thought provoking program that challenges conventional fire service paradigms and explores leading edge theories and fire service discussion points from across the American Fire Service profession with new strategic, tactical and operational considerations due to building construction, extreme compartment fire behavior and occupancy risks. Discussions on Adaptive Fire Ground Management

TM (AFM), Predictability of

Building Performance, Risk Management, Command Resiliency and Tactical Discipline and Patience will be introduced.

Building Construction: Tactical Risks for the First-Due If you're going to command or tactically engage at a structure fire: you better understand the building; there is limited margin for error on today’s evolving fireground-Errors and Omissions are Unforgiving. The ability for the first-arriving company, company officer or commander to perform an accurate identification of building type, classification and vintage are formative toward anticipating variables in structural integrity and resiliency to the effects of rapid fire development or rapid fire behavior, accelerated fire load package growth rates and intensity levels typically encountered in today’s composition and arrangement of buildings and their associated construction systems during initial and sustained fire suppression.

Arriving companies and personnel at a structure fire must be able to rapidly and accurately identify key elements of a building, process that data based upon a widening field of variables present on today’s evolving fireground and implement timely actions that address prioritized actions requiring intervention. This program will present tactical risks and key considerations for the First-Due Company, Company Officer, Commander and provide insights into integrated command and operational risk management, command and tactical safety and tactical protocols based upon occupancy risks and reading the building. Integrated group activities and case studies are incorporated to reinforce program objectives.

Adaptive Fireground Management for Command & Company Officers

There is an immediate need for today’s emerging and operating command and company officers to increase their foundation of knowledge and insights related to the modern fire dynamics, building occupancy, building construction and fire protection engineering to adjust and modify traditional and conventional strategic operating profiles to modern research based tactics in order to safeguard companies, personnel and team compositions. Strategies and tactics must be based on occupancy risk, not occupancy type, and must have the combined adequacy of sufficient staffing, controlling the fire dynamics, fire flow and tactical patience orchestrated in a manner that identifies with the fire profiling,

predictability of the occupancy profile and accounts for presumptive fire behavior. Structural fire engagement requires a balance of tactical discipline, tactical patience and predictive insights of the building executed within an Adaptive Fireground Management (AFM) model. This is an interactive and thought provoking program that challenges conventional fire service paradigms and explores leading edge theories and fire service discussion points from across the American Fire Service profession.

Reading the Building and Occupancy Risk: Building FACTS

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, construction methods, features, systems and components require new skill sets in reading the building and implementing predictive occupancy profiling for firefighters, company and command officers for effective and efficient fireground operations. Focusing on a wide variety of residential, commercial and multiple occupancy dwellings, the program will present leading insights on improved building size-up, risk assessment and determining and

implementing appropriate tactical operations for today’s evolving fireground challenges, operations and incident management. Incorporating the Buildingsonfire FACTS

TM concept for First-Arriving Construction, Tactics and Safety,

this program provides a methodology and process to increase operational effectiveness and ensure critical building factors are identified, assessment and monitored throughout the incident.

“Today’s buildings and occupancies present increasing challenges that have redefined strategic and tactical fireground operations and have changed the rules of engagement in structural fire incidents.” C.J. Naum

The Bowstring Arch and Heavy Timber Truss: Operational Considerations

There’s a tremendous lack of understanding in the American Fire Service as to what accurately defines and comprises a Heavy Timber Bowstring Truss and the Operational and Safety Precautions that must be recognized, implemented and trained on, in order to achieve and maintain operational excellence, company integrity and firefighter safety on the fireground. All bowstring trusses are not created equal and do not share the same characteristics when found in a building and occupancy. They may have the same shape, but shape alone does not define the bowstring truss. Based on the type, design, construction, materials, age, span, spacing, configuration, occupancy and application there are vast

differences and similarities. There are significant differences in terminology when referring to them and tactics that should be employed on the fireground- and yes there are prominent differences between east coast and west coast types and tactics, which will be presented along with extensive case studies. The only seminar program of its kind in the United States, this program presents leading insights into the design, application and use of bowstring trusses in various occupancies and building types with specific considerations and insights for effective fireground operations and tactical safety.
