Publisher Description: Fire Officer's Handbook of Tactics Video Series #7: Standpipe Operations. Ask any firefighter who has ever stretched a hose around the staircase for six flights how valuable a standpipe is, and you'll surely get a hearty endorsement. In Video #7: Standpipe Operations, John Norman details the various types of standpipes that are found in buildings today, their intended uses, and how to properly implement them in a fire attack; the inherent weaknesses of the standpipe water supply, as well as the significance of selecting the appropriate attack stairs; and, proper components for a standpipe kit. |
