Industrial Fire World

If you have been around for a while, most of the new books on the market probably give you a few new ideas or make you think about something you already know in a different way. A book that has completely new ideas is uncommon but one was recently published entitled 3D Training, Techniques, and Tactics by Grimwood, Hartin, McDonough, and Raffel and published by Fire Protection Publications of Oklahoma State University. The book can be found at www.ifsta.org. I started reading it one evening and stayed up almost all night before I could put it down.

........, the in depth analysis of water application to structure fires is why the text 3D Training, Techniques, and Tactics is one that belongs on every industrial fire department’s bookshelf. More

3D Fire Fighting brings together four tactical firefighting specialists from USA, Australia and the UK. Each author brings his own area of expertise to the publication in a way never seen before, truly from an international perspective.

The book and CD-ROM explore new approaches to tactical venting options, and fire confinement strategies. It also offers primary teaching aids relative to various forms of rapid fire progress, CFBT (Compartment Fire Behavior Training), and tactical fire attack (smooth-bore versus water-fog versus CAFS). ....written for fire chiefs, fire administrators, engineers, or firefighters. It demonstrates how a safer and more effective approach to tackling structure fires can result in reducing the life losses dramatically, as has been shown in the countries where 3D Fire Fighting has evolved

This excellent Publication has over 450 pages of text & colour photographs accompanied by an interactive CD Rom that includes video explanations and demonstrations, a Presentation and various links from the book itself. .........

In summary, this book has brought Firefighting into the twenty first century in the way that fog attack brought us out of
the ‘watersquirting’ era of firefighting. As a student of tactical firefighting who has been fortunate enough to have a lot of
exposure to inner city structural fires, the book has been a valuable revision tool and taught me things I did not know or explained things that had previously been unclear on. It matters not whether you are a wholetime Firefighter in the inner city, retained in a rural town, Military, Aviation or industrial. If you are likely to find yourself fighting a fire within a compartment or responsible for those who do, this book is for you.
