  • Firefighting Techniques

This is the first book in a collection that we have in mind to develop, always related to operational issues, based on the experience of more than 20 years in the face of forest fires, and far from complicated or obsolete theories, which pretend to be that, manuals of support for the training of personnel in the extinction of forest fires.

 The intended objective has not been the development of a master manual, but it does try to give an operational perspective to the management of water lines, without great mathematical calculations, accessible to anyone interested in this subject, including recommendations for the organization of the first attack on fires with fire trucks, installations of large lines, handling of water nozzles depending on the type of attack, the fuel to be treated and the intensity of the fire, including the clearance of perimeters.

 It also includes a part of the essence of the self-protection maneuvers, based on the studies of behavior in the face of vehicle fire, developed by the United States Forest Service, explaining the self-protection maneuvers according to the availability of equipment and the number of people to protect.

 Lastly, a brief summary of issues to be taken into account in the work operations at the interface is included, but from the point of view of the unit working in the fire.

'Firefighting Techniques' is the first book in a planned collection focused on practical, real-world operational strategies for wildfire suppression. Drawing from over 20 years of experience fighting forest fires, this book provides clear, accessible guidance on firefighting techniques, designed to be practical and relevant for today's fire management teams. Unlike outdated or overly complex theories, this resource is grounded in hands-on knowledge and aims to serve as a valuable training tool for personnel involved in wildfire response. Written to support the development of skills and strategies for effective fire suppression, it’s an essential resource for both novice and experienced firefighters looking to enhance their operational capabilities in forest fire management.
