2 Reasons in Organizing Fire BrigadeTo have a division of labor.

2.To build up better teamwork

Note: Each team must have a team leader and at least two or more members. Rotation of members of each team is highly recommended for them to be more flexible.

-Is a chemical reaction that takes place between fuel, heatand oxygen in the form of light and noticeable heat.

-Is the active principle of burning characterized by the heat and light of combustion.

- It is an oxidation taking place with a rate rapid enough to produce heat and light.

ELEMENTS OF FIREA. Form of energy that raises temperature, measured in degrees to signify its intensity.

B. Solid or liquid remain in their respective conditions until their temperature are raised to a point where fuel vapors are given off.A. Any material that is capable of producing vapors and burns.

B. There are three (3) kinds of fuel: Solid, liquid and gaseous fuels.A. All substance need oxygen to burn.

B. Twenty one percent (21%) of our atmosphere is composed of Oxygen.

The Fire Tetrahedron

Fires involving ordinary combustible material. example: wood, paper, cloth, plastics, rubberFires are classified according to type of material which is involved in the fire.Fires involving flammable liquidsexample: gasoline, kerosene, all petroleum productsFires involving energized electrical equipment example: electric motor, flat ironFires involving ordinary combustible metals. example: magnesium, potassium, zinc, sodium, titanium

Transfer of heat through the movement of air or liquid.Heat

EXAMPLE OF CONVECTION

Radiated heat will travel in open space until it reaches an opaque object.Radiant Heat

EXAMPLE OF RADIATION

Bringing of manpower, tools and equipments to the fire scene for the purpose of extinguishment.

Pre-fire planning- to know and to prepare on what to do in case fire occurs in particular area, building or structure2. Size- up- an estimate of the situation to the fire scene3. Rescue- bringing of person from place of danger to a safer place.4. Cover Exposure- preventing the fire to extend to an adjacent building or structure

Wind direction

5. Confinement- preventing the fire to extend to an adjacent room6. Ventilation- making holes, either horizontally or vertically for free circulation of air7. Extinguishment- the actual fighting or combating the fire8. Salvage- removal of things with value to prevent from burning and water damage9. Overhauling-completely extinguishing the small and hidden fire to prevent rekindling.10. Post-fire analysis- a critic to the operation done to the fire scene

THE FIRE EXTINGUISHMENT THEORY

The principles of fire extinction consist of the elimination or removal of one or more of the four elements. These principles are:COOLINGBy using Water as it absorbs heat from the fire and cools the fuel to a temperature where it no longer produces flammable vapors.

STARVATIONBy removal of the fuel burning in the fire. Sometimes combustible material can be removed such as by shutting off gas valves or fuel flows.SMOTHERINGBy excluding the oxygen in the surrounding atmosphere, the fire will be extinguished.
