Mid-Rise Mayhem, Hosted by Blue Ash Fire Department

MID-RISE MAYHEM..ENGINE OPERATIONS IN MID-RISE BUILDINGS

These buildings are taking the United States by storm. While most all urban and suburban

areas have them, how many of us genuinely have experienced fighting a fire in a mid-rise

building? From four hundred foot hallways to NFPA 13R sprinkler systems these three to eightstory

buildings present unique challenges. This program cover multiple aspects of firefighting

within the mid-rise building. Traditional and alternative attack methods will mainly focus on

short-staffed stretching. Topics included in the program will consist of; well-hole stretches,

offensive deck gun operations, 2.5" monitor deployment, extending attack line options, and

multiple vertical stretching options. The public has an expectation for firefighters to handle the

situation regardless if we show up with two firefighters or five on the first engine. This program

will leave you with sound offensive tactics which will help you overcome these challenging

incidents.
