Abstract
All over the world, different countries protect themselves, and their citizens from the effects of fires and accidents with the help of their fire and disaster management services. While executing firefighting or technical rescue and disaster relief tasks, these services use several methods and technical solutions during intervention. The aim is to find the best practices and solutions in the field of technical equipment, organisation and method. The applied methods are the analysis of international publications, papers from the previous years and the author’s own domestic and international experiences. The good solutions found in this research that raise the effectiveness and the safety of the fire services (especially in Hungary) are demonstrated in this paper.
