Applying Fire Research to Structural Firefighting
This training guide contains some of the most important
firefighting research and analysis done in the past 50 years. Steve
Kerber provides an insightful overview of the most significant research
undertaken by Underwriters Laboratories, the National Institute of
Standards and Technology, and several other agencies. Also included is
application of this research to the complex and dangerous work of
structural firefighting. This research can make firefighting more
efficient and effective and how tactics can affect fire behavior and
survivability. This guide will enhance firefighters’ abilities and
decision-making capabilities by providing a greater array of options for
conducting life-saving operations and property saving operations.

three young children, and she tells him, "I love you."
