Assignment:
When unwanted fires begin, or desired fires are no longer needed, actions to suppress combustion involve scientific principles outlined simply in the fire triangle or fire tetrahedron. Removal of one component (leg) of the fire triangle or interruption of the chemical chain reaction, as depicted in the fire tetrahedron, is necessary to stop the combustion process.
Once you complete the Week 5 readings, write a post to achieve the following:
1. Discuss the methods of extinguishment that can be used to break each section of the fire tetrahedron in a building fire.
2. Also, discuss the methods of extinguishment that can be used to break each section of the fire triangle in a wildland fire.
3. What aspects of this week's forum did you find most interesting?
