address important issues with a wealth of knowledge.
Ch 5. 3.How are efficiency and effectiveness different? - ✔✔Effectiveness: doing the right things.
Learning part.

Ch 5. 4.What is the essential difference between learning and performance. - ✔✔Learning: is the
aquisition of knowledge, skills
Performance: demonstration of aquired knowlege and skills
Ch 5. 5.Describe the relationship among knowledge, skill, and attitude. - ✔✔Knowledge: bring
knowledge into application without supervision. Recognize situations

,Ch 6. 1.What are the three ways loads are imposed on materials? - ✔✔1. Axial load: on the beam
2. Eccentric load: middle of deck
3. Torsion load: sides of deck, take twisted torsion
Ch 6. 2.List three types of forces created when loads are imposed on materials. - ✔✔1. Compression:
push both sides on a beam
2. Tension: pulls on a structural member
3. Shear: load transferee to another structure member

it's imposed load is called a beam.
Ch 6. 4.Explain the effects of fire on steel structural elements. - ✔✔Cold drawn steel loses 55% at 800F
Extruded steel loses 50% at 1100F
At 1000F steel elongates 10 inches

shear strength.

construction type
2. Determine structural involvement
3. Visualize and trace loads
4. Evaluate time
5. Predict and communicate collapse potential
Ch 6. 9.List several factors that accelerate the time that a structural element will fail under fire
conditions. - ✔✔1. Lighter structural elements
2. Heavier imposed load
3. No time window for construction
4. Brown dark smoke light weight times up
5. Gravity and time are constant, resistance is not
Ch 7. 1.What is smoke? - ✔✔The products of incomplete combustion that includes an aggregate of
solids, areosols, and fire gases that are toxic, flammable, and volatile.
Ch 7. 2.List common hostile fire events and their associated warning signs. - ✔✔Flashover: turbulent
smoke flow, rollover, autoignition outside.
Backdraft: yellowish gray smoke, bowing black stained windows, signs of extreme heat on outside.
Rapid fire spread: increase in smoke spread, smoke flowing from hallways faster than firefighter can
move.
Ch 7. 3.What are the four attributes of smoke? - ✔✔1. Volume: sets stage for offgassing in a given space.
2. Velocity: speed, means pressure. Heat or smoke volume. Box cannot absorb any more heat-precussor
to flashover.
3. Density: thickness, how much fuel laden in the smoke.
