illness
NFPA 1584 - NFPA standard contains guidelines for on-scene rehabilitation of
firefighters during training and emergency situations
Preburn Plan - NFPA 1403 use for the overall plan on how the live fire training evolution
will be conducted
5 to 1 - According to NFPA 1403, the student to instructor ratio during live fire training
evolutions shall not be greater than:
Order of operations - What is the term used for the sequential order of the steps for how
to conduct each live fire training evolution?
Demobilization plan - Type of plan is used to place personnel, equipment, and fire
apparatus back into service in an organized manner.
paramedic w transport capability - Preferred level of EMS that should be available to
handle injuries on site of a live fire training evolution.
50% of fire flow demand - NFPA 1403 requires how much water as a reserve of the fire
flow demand to handle exposure protection or unforeseen circumstances.
Fire flow rate - _____ is the amount of water pumped per minute needed to extinguish a
fire.
Proximity to other structures
Adverse effect on adjacent properties
Site access restrictions - Following conditions could rule out a particular structure for
live training (acquired)
95 gpm - According to NFPA 1403, attack lines must flow a minimum of how many
gpm's
Instructor in charge - Who is required to determine the amount of water needed for live
fire training evolution?
Evidence of ownership and clear title
proof of fire insurance cancellation
agreement as to costs for permits - Required from the owner for acquired structures
, 1 - How many fires can be burning simultaneously during live fire training evolutions
(acquired)?
NFPA 1402 - Which NFPA is used as a guide for building fire service training centers?
Can be mobile
more than one fire can be burned simultaneously
1403 does not specifically address shipping containers - Permanent props (not
acquired)

This is the new 2012
Requires training centers to determine their fuel loading for each burn room sequentially
(if used repeatedly)
Requires training centers to determine the number of sequential evolutions allowed
before allowing the room to cool down - Sequential Live Fire Burn evolutions (gas fired
and non gas fired)
LPG - Type of fuel is used in gas-fired live fire training structures.
Burn building - Another term for permanent live fire training structures

Non gas fired - Which of the following live fire training structures will normally have the
highest temperature during fire conditions?
Acquired prop - An automobile that was not designed for burning , but is an exterior
prop used for live fire training evolutions is an example of a:
Run off and ground contamination - Main concern of using foam during training
evolutions
Engineered water system in place - When can water supply for attack lines and backup
lines be obtained from the same source?
Safety officer - Who is assigned the responsibility for the safety of visitors and
spectators at a live fire training site?
NFPA 1981 - NFPA SCBA.
NFPA 1982 - NFPA PASS
Learning objectives - What written documentation can be used to keep everyone on
track and to assure the live fire training evolution has a purpose?
