Abstract

The article examines whether traditionally accepted aggressive fire attack techniques can coexist with fire-ground safety. It discusses the cultural shift within the fire service of finding balance between fire-ground aggressiveness and safety. It also considers the changes in the dynamics of the modern fire-ground and the shift from legacy type construction to modern light-weight construction.
