Rapid Intervention Size-Up: https://ow.ly/KfZP50TG6cw Whether we mean to or not, firefighters will size up any fire 🔥⁠ ⁠ First-arriving company officers will start size-up as soon as the alarm is sounded.⁠ ⁠ But, what if you are the company assigned to rapid intervention? You also need to do a size-up. You’ll need to consider a lot of the points of the first-due units, including the type of structure, location and extent of fire, weather conditions, and all the other 13 points of size-up that you learned at the academy and from your reading. ⁠ ⁠ But your crew is not preparing to bring in a hoseline, lay a supply line, or enter the structure to search for trapped civilians. You are arriving on scene to prepare for a possible Mayday, bringing the need to find and rescue any firefighters who are in trouble.⁠ ⁠ Full article from the magazine: https://ow.ly/KfZP50TG6cw

Mandatory Inspections VS Independent Building Inspections During World War II, fighter planes often returned from battles bearing the scars of enemy fire. The Allies noted the sections that sustained the most damage and initially considered reinforcing these areas to enhance the planes' survivability. However, mathematician Abraham Wald proposed a counterintuitive approach. He suggested that the key might lie in the areas that weren't hit. The logic was simple yet profound: the lack of bullet holes in certain sections might mean that damage there was fatal, causing planes not to return. This insight shifted the focus to reinforcing the untouched areas. The intuitive strategy proposed by mathematician Abraham Wald during WWII—to reinforce the undamaged sections of fighter planes—opens an intriguing conversation in the world of construction. Owners occasionally ask me whether engaging an Independent Building Inspector is necessary when their home is under construction. This question delves into the effectiveness and necessity of the Building Permit's Mandatory Inspections conducted by Registered Building Inspectors versus Quality Inspections offered by Unregistered Inspectors. What are your thoughts on the balance between mandatory regulatory inspections and additional quality checks? #Buildingsurveying #QualityInspection #NCC #MelbournProperty #MelbourneConstruction #ConstructionLife #BuildingInspector
