Brannigan's Building Construction for the Fire Service - Corbett, Glenn P.; Brannigan, Francis L.; Jones & Bartlett Learning; NFPA; International Association of Fire Chiefs (Burlington : National Fire Protection Association : International Association of Fire Chiefs : Jones & Bartlett Learning ; Quincy ; Fairfax, 2021)
In 1971, Francis L. Brannigan created Building Construction for the Fire Service, a groundbreaking resource offering a comprehensive description of building construction available to fire fighters. With his dedication to fire fighter safety and saving lives, the legacy of Frank Brannigan continues with the sixth edition of Brannigan’s Building Construction for the Fire Service. The Sixth Edition meets and exceeds the National Fire Academy’s Fire and Emergency Services Higher Education (FESHE) course objectives and outcomes for the Associate’s Core-Level course called Building Construction for Fire Protection (C0275). Brannigan’s Building Construction for the Fire Service, Sixth Edition is an integral resource for fire officers, instructors, those studying for promotion, individuals taking civil service examinations, fire science students, and both current and prospective fire fighters. It is part of an integrated teaching and learning system that combines dynamic features and content to support instructors and to help prepare students for their career in firefighting. [za Wydawcą]
