A detailed systematic search of an area after the fire has been extinguished.
What is a secondary search?
Oxygen deficiency is considered to be less than this concentration.
What is 19.5%?
The ratio of water in air compared to the maximum amount of water vapor the air can hold at a given temperature.
What is relative humidity?
Chipping or pitting of concrete surfaces due to fire exposure.
What is spalling?
This is used to seal a hose that has small leaks or damaged couplings.
What is a hose jacket?
The minimum temperature at which liquid gives off sufficient vapors to form an ignitable mixture.
This short extension ladder does not utilize a halyard.
What is a fresno ladder?
This mechanical device creates negative pressure that draws smoke out of a building.

What is a Seven Nine Eight cut?
This basic response strategy involving radiation has three critical factors that protect responders from exposure to radioactive material.
What are Time, Distance, and Shielding?
The ratio of the mass of a given volume of a liquid compared with the mass of an equal volume of water at the same temperature.
What is specific gravity?
A property that describes how well heat transfers through a material.
What is thermal conductivity?
This hydrant bonnet color should be used to indicate a hydrant that flows 250 gallons a minute.
What is green?
A deflagration resulting from the sudden introduction of air into a confined space containing oxygen- deficient products of incomplete combustion.
What is backdraft?
What is 40 feet?
