Publisher Description: Fire Officer's Handbook of Tactics Video Series #5: Water Supply. In Video #5: Water Supply, John Norman discusses the importance of delivering a steady and reliable supply of water to the fireground. Chief Norman teaches the basics of hydraulics, and why a good fire officer needs to understand the dynamics of water pressure and volume in order to successfully put out the fire. Norman uses his expertise as a sprinkler engineer (he didn't always wear a white hat) to instruct the viewer about PSI, friction loss, flow charts, relay pumping, LDH, and more. |
