THE NFPA STANDARD FOR TOOL MOUNTING


Below, we’ve highlighted a handful of NFPA standards pertaining to tool mounting that you may want to take into consideration:

EQUIPMENT storage

Image
  • NFPA 1912 B.1.1.4.4 PORTABLE EQUIPMENT

    After determining the weight and volume of present, proposed and future portable equipment, the fire department should analyze the actual volume and arrangement of space necessary for the portable equipment … to ensure the vehicle will not be overloaded.

  • 12.4 SCBA STORAGE

    Storage of complete SCBA units or SCBA cylinders shall be arranged so as to prevent damage, injury, or abrasion to the SCBA from other equipment stored in the general area.

  • 12.9.2 HOSE STORAGE

    [If a hose storage area(s) is provided] … The bottom shall be constructed to prevent the accumulation of water and allow ventilation to aid in drying hose.

HELMET CONTAINMENT

  • 11.1.8.4 IN-CAB FIRE HELMET USE

    One of the following statements shall be included in the operator’s manual: (1) For structural fire apparatus: “Fire helmets shall not be worn by persons riding in enclosed driving and crew areas. “Fire helmets are not designed for crash protection and they will interfere with the protection provided by head rests. The use of seat belts is essential to protecting firefighters during driving.”; (2) For wildland fire apparatus: “Warning: Serious head/neck injury can result from helmet use in cab. Do not wear helmet while seated unless necessary during suppression operations. Fire helmets are not designed for crash protection and they will interfere with the protection provided by head rests. Reduction of head clearance can increase the risk of spinal compression injury from roof contact. The use of seat belts is essential to protecting firefighters during driving.”

  • 11.1.8.4.2 HELMET CONTAINMENT

    If helmets are to be stored in the driving or crew compartment, the helmets shall be secured in compliance with 11.1.11.2: All equipment not required to be used during an emergency response, with the exception of SCBA units, shall not be mounted in a driving or crew area unless it is contained in a fully enclosed and latched compartment capable of containing the contents when a 9 g force is applied in the longitudinal axis of the vehicle or a 3 g force is applied in any other direction, or the equipment is mounted in a bracket(s) that can contain the equipment.
