Chapter Summary

本章提要

• Understanding building construction will ensure the safety of every fire fighter on the scene.

为保障火场消防员安全，有必要学习建筑施工方面的知识。

If you understand where the weaknesses in a building are, you can make sure that you and your team steer clear of those areas.

只有了解建筑的薄弱区域，才能正确避开这些危险。

• For fire fighters, using proper building construction terminology is critical to clarify communication, enhance professionalism, and ensure safety.

对于消防员而言，使用恰当的建筑行业术语对于减少沟通误会，强化专业性，提高安全性都至关重要。

• Preplanning—and knowing your buildings—is an important fire department function that enables fire fighters to minimize surprises on the fireground by learning everything possible about potential problems ahead of time.

制定预案—并了解该建筑—是消防部门的重要工作，通过提前发掘所有潜在问题，最大限度减少消防员在火场上可能遭遇的“惊喜”。

• Prefire analysis goes a step beyond the basic preplanning; it involves studying the prefire plan information that has been gathered to identify specific construction issues/concerns and interactions.

预案分析比制定预案更进一步，通过研究所有已掌握的信息进行来发现建筑中存在的问题以及它们的关联情况。

• Many—if not most—buildings are not totally compliant with all building (and fire) codes, so preplanning fire surveys can reveal dangerous conditions before an emergency occurs.

很多—不是大部分—建筑并不完全符合建筑或消防相关法律规范，预案调研可以在事故发生前发现这些问题。

• Study reports of past fires and learn the lessons.

学习火灾事故调查报告并吸取其中的经验教训。

• Fire fighter safety is the number one priority when considering the risks of any particular situation.

在任何情况下，消防员安全都是第一位的。
