Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Houston's firefighting service began in 1838 with the founding of Protection Fire Company No. 1. As the city of Houston grew throughout the early and mid-19th century, volunteer companies formed and grew along with it. By 1895, city leaders decided to form the Houston Fire Department as a city department, culling the volunteer forces for men, stations, apparatus, and horses. The city grew in leaps and bounds, swallowing up neighborhoods, communities, and smaller cities along the way, with the fire department nipping at their heels. This brave force battled devastating fires throughout the years, most notably the Great Fifth Ward Fire in 1912, the 1943 Gulf Hotel Fire, the Woodway Square Apartment Conflagration in 1979 and the Southwest Inn Fire in 2013. What was once a smattering of volunteer fire brigades has grown into an imposing force of over 3,000 firefighters protecting over two million people in the fourth largest city in the United States.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Everything we do--or don't do--affects the fire. Deputy Chief P.J. Norwood and Captain Sean Gray discuss how fireground strategy and tactics have evolved in light of fire research conducted around the world. They discuss the fire tetrahedron and how fuel, heat, and air all affect a fire’s growth or extinguishment. Gray and Norwood take the lessons learned from the research as well as their general knowledge of the fireground to illustrate safer and more effective ways to operate on the fireground. They discuss how to apply this new understanding of fire behavior to two of the fire service’s most important tasks: search and fire attack. This book is an important resource for anyone wanting to put new fire dynamics research to action. You will learn: --How firefighting activities affect the fire tetrahedron --To stay safe while working in the flow path on the fireground --Search methods that isolate the firefighter and victim --Fire attack methods that minimize the air fed to the fire --Incident command size up and decision making

Book Synopsis Establishing a Need for a Fitness Program in the Houston Fire Department by : Steven S. Jahnke
Download or read book Establishing a Need for a Fitness Program in the Houston Fire Department written by Steven S. Jahnke and published by . This book was released on 1993 with total page 30 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The very nature of their job calls for firefighters to work inside burning buildings, to enter hazardous atmospheres, and perform a myriad of other dangerous tasks. A firefighter can go from quietly sitting in a class at the station to zooming down the road toward a potential catastrophe in a matter of seconds. All of these activities coupled with the incredible stress of knowing lives and property depend on one's quick and proper actions, take a toll on the firefighter's health. The intent of this paper is to promote the establishing of a health and fitness program in the Houston Fire Department. The research done does not suggest that all death and injuries can be eliminated by implementing such a program. However, it does suggest that many of these injuries and deaths, particularly those deaths due to heart attacks, can be severely curtailed by adhering to a structured fitness regime.
