Changes in construction regulations and the widespread use of synthetic material in fittings for housing and professional premises have affected the experimental methods used to fight fire in enclosed and semi-enclosed spaces. Nowadays, firefighters constantly have to adapt their equipment and methods to remain effective. Consequently to dramatic accidents, the Paris Fire Brigade exploits feedback to redefine operational needs and provide fire-fighters with new protective equipment. The protective leather jacket and the two-cylinder, self-contained breathing apparatus have been replaced by a protective textile jacket and a single-cylinder breathing apparatus. Nevertheless, the Brigade judged that compliance with relevant standards alone was...
