Speaker: Paul Fox – Fire Training Hickam AFB (Ret) Fire Photographer
Topic: “Fire – Up the Outside of Buildings”
Once again EAH is lucky to have Paul Fox speak to us. He will talk to us about fire climbing the outside of buildings. While this has not been a major problem in the US (but there have been cases), many high-rise fires around the world have fallen victim to flames traveling up the outside the building. While some have been the traditional flames lapping up floor to floor and entering via the windows. Many have literally burned up "the outside of the building", all the way to the top! Some have involved the entire building, while others were confined just to the outside of the building. This presentation will highlight the various fires, why they occurred, how they burned, and the firefighting efforts involved with them. The Grenfell Tower incident in London, England will be highlighted.
Friday March 17
March Program Chair Sam Dannaway Fire Protection Engineer
Speaker: Sam Dannaway – Coffman Engineers
Topic: “Book Preview – History of the Honolulu Fire Department”
Sam will be speaking about a special book project, History of the Honolulu Fire Department, a collaboration between three authors (Sam Dannaway, Paul Fox, and Dennis Lewis) with the support of the Honolulu Fire Department. The presentation will include various items included in the soon (?) to be published history. The HFD, one of the oldest organized fire departments in the country, has an amazing history, one that involves Kings, revolution, major fires, and war between nations.
