This Sunday morning, we hosted a "Firefighter Skills Class" as part of our weekly Sunday Training.
The "Firefighter Skills Class" focused on Building Construction and its importance in the Fire Service. Vista Firefighters reviewed the five types of building construction, learning how to identify each type and understand their implications for firefighting. The five types every firefighter should know are: Fire-Resistive (Type 1), Non-Combustible (Type 2), Ordinary (Type 3), Heavy Timber (Type 4) and Wood-Framed (Type 5). This training not only provides essential foundational skills for those enrolled in the Firefighter I program, but also helps those who have completed Firefighter I maintain and enhance their expertise.
