Health and safety
Slips:
Slips and trips are the single most common cause of injuries at work,
And account for over a third of all major work injuries.
Example: A man is slips at wet floor when he come at Restaurant.
THE main reason of caused trips is walkways.
Example of a trips: Loose mats, rugs and carpets. Inappropriate footwear.
Examples of fall: A worker carrying a heavy box of food falls down in stair of a Restaurant.
Tool and machinery:
Planetary mixture: The cloth are caught by moving part.
Electricity and gas:
Microwave oven: Put a metal decorated dish in microwave oven.
Manual handling: A cut on finger by knife.
The risk of injury include the load being too heavy, large.
The task being too

A fire needs oxygen to start and increase continuously.
The extinguisher use:
Carbon Dioxide fire extinguishers: the fire extinguish by Carbon Dioxide fire extinguishers to taking away the oxygen element of the fire triangle and also be decrease the heat with a very cold discharge.
HEAT: The second element in the fire triangle is heat, which is may be the most essential of fire elements. A fire cannot ignite unless it has a certain amount of heat.
The extinguisher use:
Water and Foam fire extinguishers: The fire extinguish by Water and Foam to taking away the heat element of the fire. Foam agents also divided the oxygen element from the other fire elements.
FUEL: The final element in the fire triangle is fuel. A fire needs a fuel source in order to burn. The fuel source can be anything that is flammable, such as wood, paper, fabric, or chemicals.
The extinguisher use:
Wet Chemical is a new element that extinguishes the fire by removing the heat of the fire and prevents re-ignition by creating a barrier between the oxygen and fuel elements. Once the fuel element of the fire is removed, the fire will go
During the Triangle fire there were fire exits but most of
They can be natural, accidental, incendiary, or undetermined. Natural fires can begin because of nitrogen levels in soil, lightning strikes, or dry conditions. Accidental fires are caused by situations such as gas leaks or candles being left burning. Incendiary fires are set on purpose with the intention to cause damage or death. Many times these are fueled by flammable liquids such as gasoline.
Characteristic Property- Test 3- Flame Test Materials: tongs, unknown 6, matches Procedure: at the sink, we held a small piece of towel that was soaked with the liquid fraction 6 and held it with the tongs for the lit match to light it on fire. Data: We found that the unknown is flammable after it automatically lit on fire and burned during the burn test.
I, myself, can think of many possibilities of what caused the fire. One possibilities could have been that he was making something on the stove and didn’t notice and/or didn’t smell something weird. Another possibility is that the smoke detector
Norwood and Gray suggest that, “We are giving a false sense of security when we fight only fuel-limited fire during training”(59). If new firefighters have never been exposed to an out of control fire before they reach their actual jobs they will be dumbfounded once they see the difference between that and what they are used to training with. In my experience I have seen both fuel-limited training fires and out of control fires. I would have to agree that out of control fires are very dangerous and different compared to these training burns.
The Great Chicago Fire of 1871 left an indelible mark on the history of firefighting. This catastrophic event led to significant advancements in fire suppression techniques and fireground tactics that continue to shape the modern fire service. The lessons learned from the fire prompted reforms, legislative changes, and the establishment of organizations dedicated to fire safety. Today, the impact of the Great Chicago Fire serves as a reminder of the importance of continuous improvement, innovation, and a proactive approach
Historically humans havestarted fires to clear the land, suppressed wildfires, allowed fires toburn naturally, and used fire to reduce fuel loads. Records of fire scars in fossilized trees and other vegetation indicate that fires influenced ecosystems on Earth at least 350 million years ago. How fire came to be controlled and used on a daily basis by humans is
While not inherently evil in itself, fire, if not controlled properly is something that can create unspeakably devastating damage. It is a powerful tool which if used correctly can be of great service, our concept specifically relates to how fire is often used to purify many differents types of metal and make them more valuable and better then before they were touched by
Burn everything. 4. Report back to the firehouse immediately. 5. Stand alert for other Alarms.”
Parts of equipment breaking and hitting the worker in the head is a common thing. More than 15% of concussions are from blunt force trauma to the head (Traumatic Brain). The workplace is the most common place for injuries. A workplace head injury is the most common injury in the workplace. There are many workplace injuries that are preventable, but there are many more that can not be prevented.
Fire is one of the symbols that is shown in the very first scene of the movie. The large flames of the house fire that erupted when those on the reservation decided to celebrate 4th of July are shown and throughout the movie multiple representations of fire are used. In the first, and biggest fire or the movie, Thomas’ parents perish in the fire and a younger Thomas is saved by Arnold. However, Arnold says that he didn’t meant to save him. From then on throughout the movie, fire has been used in situations were liberation is occurring in so way or shape.
Chemical compounds that are available to determine are CaCO3, CaCl2, Ca(NO3)2, mgCl2, MgSO4, KCl, HCl, HC2H3O2, KNO3, K2SO4, NaC2H3O2, Na2CO3, NaCl, Na2SO4, HNO3, H2SO4, HNO3, H2SO4, NH4Cl, (NH4)2SO4, K2CO3, 0.1 M AgNO3, 0.2 M BaCl, Mg(s), NaOH, and KOH. To start this experiment, start with the flame test by gathering a Bunsen burner and a Nichrome wire. Connect the Bunsen burner with a rubber tube to a laboratory gas. To prepare solutions for the flame test, weigh out 0.205 gram of Unknown Compound using an analytical balance and mixed it into a 140 mL beaker filled with 20 mL ionized water. Ensure that solid is completely dissolved using a stirring rod.
In conclusion, firefighting started from a humble background in ancient Egypt with the simple gesture of building of a pump. From there, ideas grew, and more innovations discovered that has made it an outstanding professionalism it is today. The important role that firefighting plays in the society has seen it transform over the centuries since the third century. Cities have in the past been devastated by fire outbreaks with examples being London and major cities in America. It is safe to say, if those cities had not reconsidered the importance of firefighters, then they would have seized to exist.
Escape fire is defined as a fire intentionally set to provide protection against a larger uncontrolled fire (Heineman & Fromke, 2012). This documentary maintains that in order to
Flames wane and flicker, similar to the lives of the survivors. The ability to live on exists in carrying the fire. In contrast, the flames of a fire is a delicate art, something that may bring destruction if not carefully handled. Just as it brings warmth and life, fire brings death as well. Fire brings warmth to those who stay close to its flames, but will burn those who touch it.
