PPT-Section 3 – Cold Stress and the Firefighter

Explain the terms and concepts associated with cold weather factors and stress on firefighters Understand the firefighters physiological response to cold weather conditions Recognize the signs of hypothermia and initiate the proper treatment. GETTING THE JOB DONE. A safe worker is a productive worker. When . worker capacity is impaired, so is productivity. Inadequate . hydration . leads to a loss in productivity. When a worker is 2% dehydrated, they’re 20% less productive. Drosophila melanogaster. Krista Carter Advisor: Dr. Brown. Results. . In order to ensure that the flies were stressed, the maximum heat and cold temperatures at which the flies could survive for 48 hours were found. The heat stress exposure was determined to be 29° C. Flies could survive at 7° C, but this temperature posed a problem because it restricted their movement so that they could not reach the feeding tube. A temperature of 10° C was used for the cold stress exposure since it was the lowest temperature at which the flies could move enough to reach the glucose solution.. Tom Bradshaw. John Cobb.

Everyone Goes Home® . Project. The best way to honor fallen firefighters is to reduce the risks firefighters face in the performance of their duties. Recrystallization. Shear Stress and Dislocations. Dislocations are moved by Shear Stresses. . = applied stress = F/A. s. n. = stress normal to plane. t. r. = shear stress acting in the plane shaded. Key Points:. Bending moment causes beam to deform.. X = longitudinal axis. Y = axis of symmetry. Neutral surface – does not undergo a change in length. 6.2 Bending Deformation and Strain. Key Points:. Presenter’s Name. Contact. Body temperature considered normal at or near 98.6° F. Cold stress occurs when body temperature drops below 95° F . Cold Stress. Respiration. Evaporation. Conduction.
