#StructuralCollapse

This week we are holding an operations level Structural Collapse for some of our new members who recently competed their bootcamp and on-boarding. This 5 day course is the basis for many of our specialties on the team. #usar #structuralcollapse

#TechRescue Tuesday: Last week, the Mass Fire Academy delivered its first #StructuralCollapse Lifting & Moving Module. The intensive, two-day course focuses on the application of specialized knowledge, skills, and equipment necessary to safely move large obstacles.

#TechRescue Tuesday: Last week, we held the first delivery of the new #StructuralCollapse Shoring Module. The intensive, two-day course focused on interior and exterior shoring at structural collapse incidents to assist in rescue and extrication.

#TechRescue Tuesday: The Massachusetts Firefighting Academy's #StructuralCollapse Rescue Technician course is back! #Firefighters from across the Commonwealth attended the second delivery of this 8-day, 80-hour class at our Bridgewater campus. Learn more:

#TechRescue Tuesday: Congrats to the 29 FFs who completed the MFA's 1st #StructuralCollapse Rescue Technician course! From engineering concepts in the classroom to breaking, breaching, shoring, & lifting on the drill yard, they're bringing valuable new rescue skills back home.

SM&B has secured multimillion dollar, record-setting verdicts & settlements, including: $227M settlement for the #SalvationArmyStoreCollapse in Phila. that killed 7 people & injured 12—the largest #PersonalInjurySettlement in PA history #StructuralCollapse

Thank you for taking time this morning to come out and watch some of the specialized training being offered and talk to Capt. Jonathan Rigolo about the Structural Collapse School. @FEMAregion3 #FEMA #VirginiaTaskForceTwo #StructuralCollapse @VaFirePrograms #TechnicalRescue

First responders train for building collapse situations with Virginia Task Force 2

#TechRescue: The #IncidentCommandSystem for #StructuralCollapse Incidents class provides info & resources that mid-management to chief level personnel can use to safely mitigate a structural collapse or tech rescue incident. This class wrapped up a few weeks ago in #Lunenberg.

#TechRescue Tuesday: Instructors have been honing their skills in preparation for the #StructuralCollapse rescue technician course beginning this month. Final preparations are underway to offer this training to 30 students, and we're excited to host it!

#PowerTools of the Trade: MFA instructors learn and refresh #StructuralCollapse skills at the #Bridgewater campus. They're using a saw with a diamond blade, a hydraulic jackhammer, and a concrete drill. These tools help rescuers access patients trapped by a heavy wall collapse.

This past winter, we've been requested to look into structural damages caused by the snow storms. Here we are investigating a barn roof collapse. Keep an eye on your roof truss plates, they should not look like this. #structuralcollapse #engineering #corrosion #truss #roofing

Search Canines and #FL360 cameras. The ultimate search combination for speed and accuracy on a #rubblepile #structuralcollapse. #Victimlocation is extremely difficult in a collapsed struc and even more important is time. 360° Spherical Imaging and a Nose are extremely efficient.

Rescue operations at the scene of the structural collapse at a football training village in a rural area north of Durban have concluded. #ArriveAlive #StructuralCollapse @AlsParamedics @ConstructionSfy

Really nice and fun play session of Hellgineers by someone with a lot of bridge building experience. Glad you enjoyed it @RCE_Official ! 🍿 #pico8 #indiegame #structuralCollapse
