Many firefighters have been injured or have died while trying to extinguish a basement fire or a fire on a level below them. Below-grade fires can present different challenges based on the potential ventilation or the building construction. During the past few years, field experience was collected and reviewed, and fire experiments were conducted as part of a collabor

Many firefighters have been injured or killed while trying to extinguish a basement fire. Basement fires can pose a high risk to a firefighter due to the high heat, high velocity fire gases found in the exhaust portion of a flow path and/or the potential for a floor collapse. Watch our new project summary video to learn key points and tactical considerations from the UL FSRI and International Society of Fire Service Instructors “Understanding and Fighting Basement Fires” research project.

Tactical Tuesday - Sounding the floor. The use of a tool to determine the structural integrity of a floor system has been around the fire service for decades. Some training manuals even present this as a skill which must be mastered during introductory training. How applicable is that skill? In legacy construction solid wood joists, often with old growth lumber were used to provide the structural component of a floor system. A sub-floor, typically 1" x 6" floor boards or more recently plywood or

UL FSRI has released a NEW Fire Attack Full-Scale Online Course The decision of where to apply water may be one of the most important initial decisions during a structure fire. Whether your crew chooses to apply water as part of an interior attack or transitional attack, it is important to know the how the hose stream will impact the fire environment ahead. When you are behind the nozzle, visibility can be limited and understanding this impact can be difficult. Access the course here: http://s.u

On October 10, 2017 the FSRI team conducted a full-scale experiment in 1200 sq. ft ranch style house to demonstrate the importance of closed doors as a passive fire protection measure. The burn was held at the Delaware County Emergency Services Training Center in Sharon Hill, PA, where FSRI had constructed the model home for other fire research. The doors to two bedrooms were closed, while a third bedroom’s door was left open. The fire, set in the living room, was allowed to burn until it starte
