Firefighter Intervention: Manual Fire Suppression
Abstract Fire department tactics are usually a function of the structure being defended. Because of the large lumber industry in the US, there is a tendency to construct structures of wood. The configuration of wood in these structures leads to fires that may not only consist of burning the contents of a structure, but also the structure itself. Many countries outside the US, depending on their location and legislation may use more brick and stone in their construction. This leads to more contents fire and less structural fires, and therefore sometimes completely different fire department tactics. The “manual suppression coordinated operations” very generally discussed here are those of the US.
