Fire Truck Extinguished Fire

A firefighter should not work with nervous or careless, but must be thorough and patient, not just shoot water into the fire, because it can be fatal. Fire-fighting task is to extinguish the fire and evacuate and help fire victims. If we want to help extinguish the fire, the first thing seen is to study the situation and environments around the fire.

The firemen have to pay attention to the surrounding environment before firing water into the source of fire, and fire fighting vehicles in a safe place because the fire truck was needed to assist victims and help evacuate casualties.

Especially for fire trucks must pay attention to supply water source if the truck is running out of water after being sprayed. Whether around the scene any lake and hydrant or other water sources that can be utilized as a source of water supply. Attention to the road and the fastest and safe vehicles can turn maneuver.

On real fire extinguisher acting, even in newer place that we don't familiar with that place, we don't know what is the source of fire and where the place is in fire because all the place is closed by fog. All place just look like fog like on the above picture. To overcoming this situation, actually we can use thermal camera in order we can shoot our hydrant to the right fire spot.

Green Building Concept

Application of green-buildings have not been as big as expected. Because, there are still many do not know the economic value of green building like on green wall garden.

Naning Adiningsih Adiwoso, founder and Chairman of the Green Building Council of Indonesia (GBCI) said, the concept of green building provides energy savings up to 65%.

Green building concept is a building with the application of the rules of sustainable consumption. This supports the concept of energy saving and water, so essential to the comforts of life.

Unfortunately, this concept has not been well educated in the community. Last year, GBCI netted 86 members. With over 114 members this year, GBCI targets next year reached 125 members.

Naning sure, this will be the future trend, as long as developers, owners, contractors, and managers, seriously implement. Moreover, if the government provides incentives like in Singapore and Australia.

Thermal Camera

Thermal camera is the camera that can detect heat or differ of picture view from the temperature. More heat the source of thing the picture will different with the surround that have different temperature. This camera just read of the heat of the source so their view will not be blocked by particles in the air like smoke and dust.

The sample of thermal and the picture resulted if we see by this camera as on the picture below:

Thermal camera is used in many purposes, but in safety interest thermal camera use to seek victim on the smoked area or to detect the source of fire. To choose thermal camera also should be suit with the purpose, like in safety it better if the camera is small and light in order easy to operate because usually fireman also bring other tools for working.

Many kind product available in the world, there are product that need by license and many other product no need license to own it. The price of this camera not like usual camera Nixon AW100, of course expensive, the cheap one about Rp. 50,0 million and the expensive about the same with the car price.
