1 Skill Sheet 17-I-2 Objective 22: Attack a structure fire above, below, and at ground level Interior attack. (NFPA 1001, , ) Student Name: Date: Directions For this skills evaluation checklist, a team of firefighters, while wearing full PPE and SCBA, will attack a structure fire above, below, and at grade level. Inform students of their positions for this evaluation. A safety officer should check each student s gear before the student proceeds with the training evolution. Ensure firefighter safety at all times during this training evolution. Before proceeding with live fire training evolutions, read and adhere to NFPA 1403, Standard on Live Fire Training Evolutions. Have students repeat this exercise, rotating the hoseline duties so that each student has a chance to perform on the nozzle. In the above-grade fire attack Step 6: If the fire is in highrise or multi-story commercial structure, the fire attack may be from a standpipe connection. Equipment & Materials Appropriate PPE and SCBA Ventilation tools and equipment Class A live fire building Rescue and lighting equipment Two separate water sources Salvage and overhaul tools and equipment Portable radios Accountability system Forcible entry tools Apparatus Hand lines (One 1½ inch [38 mm] or larger charged back-up line, supplied from second water source, with fog nozzle. One 1½ inch [38 mm] or large charged attack line equipped with fog nozzle and supplied from separate water source.) Oklahoma State University p.1
