what happened is it say how many victims are there to call 911 always have 911 first is

What is a high-rise building ✔✔Title 19 of California code of regulations/CCR defines a
high-rise building as floors having as measured from top of the floor surface used for
human occupancy located more than 75 feet above the lowest floor level having direct
building access for firefighters
Why 75 feet ✔✔Most American fire service area ladders are 100 feet in length the
normal angle for climbing an extended latter is 70 degrees
Characteristics of a high-rise building ✔✔An international conference of Highway safety
expert sponsored by the General services administration and usual characteristics of a
high-rise building we're defined as beyond the reach of the fart apartment area ladders
possess a potential stack effect
Chemistry a fire ✔✔Fire is defined as the rapid oxidation of combustible materials
accompanying the release of energy in the form of heat and light
What are the three components of fire ✔✔Oxygen heat and fuel
, What percentage of oxygen is in the air ✔✔21% oxygen and 79% nitrogen
What is the definition of fuel ✔✔The fuel company is defined as any material that can be
oxidized some simple fuels and the related physical state are gases natural gas
hydrogen carbon monoxide acetylene liquid gasoline flashpoint above 45° turpentine
paint alcohol solids like plastic cloth paper and leather
Define fire gases ✔✔Fire Gas is related to vaporize product of combustion the most
common gas is found in the burning of materials containing carbon
Define flame ✔✔Flame is a visible body of burning gas relief for fuel sources however
he smoke and gases can develop in smoldering fires without any sign of flame this is
also the truth with some of the exotic fuels used in auto racing and aviation
Define heat ✔✔Heat is the product of combustion which is most responsible for the
spread of fireIt is the direct cause of burns and other forms of entry heat is measured in
degrees of temperature which indicates the intensity and the energy being released
Define smoke ✔✔Smoke is it visible product of incomplete combustion smoke found it
fires can consist of a mixture of oxygen nitrogen carbon dioxide
Classes of fires ✔✔Class a fires ordinary combustible's class B fires flammable liquids
class C fires energized electrical equipment class D fires combustible metals class K
fires combustible vegetable or animal fat used for cooking
Heat transfers ✔✔The likely method if he transfers important consideration how high-
rise building fires heat is commonly transfer three ways conduction convection and
radiation conduction is the transfer of heat body to another by direct contact of two
bodies
Flashover ✔✔Flash over occurs when a room or other enclosed area become headed
to the point were flame flash over the entire space involved
backdraft ✔✔In a building or room spaces that are not ventilated was sufficient oxygen
the fire will start to smolder a
Flame spread ✔✔Flame spread is the rate at which flame travels over the surface of the
Touriel interior building materials and finishes have a flame spread
Rapidfire development ✔✔I can find fire within a space interferes with the disposition of
heat gases and smoke the radiator and he will feedback to the seat of the fire and
greatly enhance the initial burning right in contrast to an outside fire
