North American Version

Because fire department personnel are usually the first responders to structural collapses, firefighters should be trained to locate and free victims from collapsed structures in the safest and most efficient way possible. This manual, which addresses the structural collapse portion of NFPA 1006, Standard for Rescue Technician Professional Qualifications, and the 1999 edition of NFPA 1670, Standard on Operations and Training for Technical Rescue Incidents, is designed to go beyond the basic rescue skills detailed in the Fire Service Search and Rescue manual to cover those needed by the rescue technician at these types of incidents.
