Info

One of the first consideration of an incident commander should be apparatus placement, specifically truck placement. Managing key positions is a major element in effective apparatus placement. Key positions are those on the fireground that place the apparatus in the best positions to perform their functions.
Key operating positions are usually available only once. If they are not filled initially, they are generally gone for the duration of the incident. Loss of key positions places everyone at a disadvantage. You should begin thinking about apparatus placement well before your reach the scene or even before the alarm is sounded. That is called Pre‐Planning.
