Effectiveness of Smoke Abated Training in Simulated Crash Fire Fighting
Concern for the environment has resulted in the development of a water spray apparatus which can greatly reduce the smoke associated with aircraft crash fire simulations used in fire fighter training. This study compared the effectiveness of smoke abated training with conventional procedures. Results showed no significant differences between students trained under smoke abated conditions and those who experienced natural, or smoky, fires during training. However, students who had received smoke abated training were less confident and more unsure of the effectiveness of their training than conventional students. It was concluded that smoke abated training can be an effective method for training fire protection specialists with certain constraints. Recommendations regarding employment of the smoke suppression apparatus are provided in the report.
