CAR FIRE
EVENT SETUP: This event will simulate a response to a car fire. Engine 12 shall
be placed on the front apron of station 1 next to the hydrant facing Fortino Dr.
The engine will be running with the pump NOT in gear. You will get 60 seconds to
plan your strategy. The group leader shall NOT be the pump operator.
OBJECTIVE: The team is to start out with hands on the front bumper of Engine 12.
On your start, they will mount 12 and don SCBAs in their seats (NOT OUTSIDE THE
CAB). The pump operator will engage the pump and proceed to place the car fire
load in service but not advance it. The fully donned SCBA members will advance
the hose line (not the operator) to the side walk next to the south walk in door
of the station, stop and with the water stream, knock over a traffic cone placed
in a common location at least 25' from the advanced hose. The time will stop
when the cone is knocked over.
TIME KEEPER: Have all members freeze. Check for infractions such as: turn out
gear improperly donned, Incorrect pump pressure, running etc. Record times and
infraction(s). Discuss findings with group. Have the group replace all the
equipment to its original place and condition and have them standby for the next
rotation. Radio to training officer when finished.
TOOL SEARCH
This event is designed to measure a firefighters ability to retrieve tools, and
/or equipment from an engine quickly. Engine 11 will be located at a
predetermined area. The team LEADER will be the ONLY one to help.
There will be a table with lists of tools and/or equipment. The team members
will NOT be able to view the lists before hand. Safety is an issue.
OBJECTIVE: The team will start at a predetermined location away from the table
and apparatus. On start, One team member will select a list from the table and
proceed to the apparatus. They will retrieve the items on the list and proceed
back to the staging area. At that point, the team leader will correct them if
need be. The team member will take the wrong item back to the apparatus and get
the correct one. The team leader will not be retrieving tools only assisting on
the location only on the second attempt. Once the team leader feels the correct
items have been retrieved, the team member will return to the staging area and
hand tag the next member. Time will stop when all members have completed their
lists.
TIME KEEPER: At this point, you will recheck the list to the items pulled. 10
seconds will be added for each infraction.
21/2" (150') HOSE ADVANCE & CHARGE
This event can be associated with protecting an exposure. An engine is to be
placed on Civic drive. The engine is to be running with the pump out of gear
facing east at a predetermined location. On the tail board there is to be three
rolled lengths of 2 ½" hose with the male couplings inside and one 2 ½"
adjustable nozzle. At the west end of the parking lot, there will be a traffic
cone set so that it will 50' away from the 150' lay of hose when connected. The
group leader shall NOT be the pump operator. You may give the team 60 seconds to
plan their strategy.
OBJECTIVE: The team is to start out inside seated in the apparatus. On your
start, they will connect all the hose, flow water and tip over the cone at which
the time will stop.
TIME KEEPER: Log the time and add 5 seconds for each unsafe act by each member.
List the infraction(s) on your log and discuss with the team. Have the group
replace the hose, nozzle, cone and pump to the condition before starting and
have the team standby for next rotation. Radio to training officer when
finished.
1 3/4" (250') HOSE ROLE THROW
This event is to simulate advancing and rolling up hose quickly. Five lengths of
1 3/4" hose will be placed rolled near the rear bay door. All members are
required to wear full turn out gear.
OBJECTIVE: Each member will start at a pre-determined location. All members will
be side by side. On start, all members will role out their hose all at the same
time. Than they will walk to the other end and start rolling it back up. Once it
is rolled up, they will be stacked on top of each other. Time will stop when the
last role is placed on top. The trick is to try to role out the hose in a
straight line so it doesn’t inter fear with the other members.
