Вариант 3 техт а the history of fire protection and prevention in great britain

William I (William the Conqueror) of England (1027 - 1089) decreed one of the first recorded fire prevention regulations. The use of the open hearth for heating and cooking in houses created a fire danger and he ordered all fires be extinguished at night. On the ringing of the evening bell all fires were to be extinguished.

King Richard I (1189 - 1199) decreed that walls 16 feet high and 3 feet thick were to be built between the neighbouring buildings to prevent fire spread. This requirement is similar to the modern standard. It requires that parapet walls must prevent fire spread from one building to another.

After September 2, 1666, further changes in fire prevention regulations took place On that day the Great Fire of London began and burned for 5 days. Following that fire the London City Council acted to prevent similar fires. The law was passed that required all homes to be built of brick or stone. Those were the first attempts at controlling fire.

Fire extinguishing theory

The extinguishing theory of fire is based on аn interruption of one or more fire ingredients. With flaming combustion the fire may be extinguished by reducing temperature, eliminating fuel or oxygen, or by stopping the uninhibited chemical chain reaction. If a fire is in the smoldering phase of combustion, only three extinguishment options exist: reduction of temperature, elimination of fuel, or oxygen. One of the most common methods of extinguishment is cooling by water. The process of extinguishment by cooling is dependent on cooling the fuel to a point where it does not produce sufficient vapour to burn.

In some cases, a fire is effectively extinguished by removing the fuel source. This may be accomplished by stopping the flow of liquid or gaseous fuel or by removing solid fuel. Another method of fuel removal is to allow the fire to burn until all fuel is consumed.

The method of extinguishment by oxygen dilution is the reduction of the oxygen concentration to the fire area. This can be accomplished by introducing an inert gas into the fire or by separating the oxygen from the fuel. This method of extinguishment will not work on self-oxidized materials or on certain metals as they are oxidized by carbon dioxide or nitrogen, the two most common extinguishing agents.
