건축물의 주요 구조재 및 마감재로 널리 사용되고 있는 목재는 수종에 따라 매우 다양한 물리적 성질을 가지며, 동일한 수종일지라도 성장한 기후 및 지역에 따라 목재 조직의 성분에 차이가 발생하기 때문에 연소특성에 대한 정립을 하기가 매우 어려운 건축 재료에 속한다. 또한 한 나무에 서서도 재료를 재제하는 방식이나 추출 위치에 따라 밀도 및 나이테의 방향이 달라지므로 그 물리적인 성질까지 변하게 된다. 본 연구에서는 목재 제재 방법을 달리하여 추출한 목제 시편의 연소시험을 통해 재제방법과 연소특성의 연관성을 관찰 및 분석을 수행하였다.

A firefighter is one of the most dangerous jobs. But in many precent studies, risk induction factors have been understood as direct accident causes and classification of the factors are not logical. This studies reviews risk induction risks and categorized them into institutional, cultural and personal experience factors. institutional factors, Institutional factors are composed of educational and working conditions. Cultural factors are composed of performance oriented and considerate parts. Personal experiences are divided into two parts: experiences about organizational members and about ordinary citizens. Survey showed that working conditions were recognized so poorly by firefighters.

The purpose of this study was to realize volunteer fire departments' historical identity through a review of the transition process from the quickening period of volunteer fire departments to the enactment of the volunteer fire department act in 2014, establish it newly from the viewpoint of changing the basic theoretical concepts, and seek a development plan. For this, the technical approach method was used based on the research method of literature searches. The result of the study established the definition as 'volunteer fire departments are legal auxiliary organizations composed by local residents who volunteer and understand one another with their independent and voluntary will to prepare for all kinds of disasters as well as fire suppression, rescue, and first aid.' and the installation ideology as 'leading service organizations of safety as a form of community involvement', 'resident-friendly organizational activities based on autonomous operational operation' and 'the activities of supplementing their demands according to the realization of social welfare and regional conditions'. Regarding the characteristics, the basic theoretical concept was newly established by 'voluntary participation', 'social expandability', 'the realization and complementation of social welfare', and 'professionalism and possibilities'. In addition it is expected that the results of this study can be utilized as the basic materials in studies of volunteer fire departments in the future.

This research was conducted through demonstrating method about how high cooperation level between crisis management systems against terror in korea is now, based on both interaction level relating to cooperation relation among organization relationship theory. Through the results of analysis, People in charge against terror were widely recognizing about the need of cooperation between crisis management systems to treat terror effectively. For organic cooperation between organizations, it was suggested the politic implication that it is the most important task to build the sense of values, the behavior about cooperations in the internal phase of crisis management system.

As population has been gravitating to the city and buildings have been getting higher, closer and deeper, the damage is getting greater and taking countermeasures against disaster is rising one of the major government's projects. The aim of this study is to suggest a utilization plan of the emergency rescue information system based on the operating problems after valuating user part, system part and organization part of the system. As result, facility plan for access to emergency rescue information system and operating on user part, raing plan of rapidity and stability on system part, decision making and organization and contribution plan on organization part are suggested.

In this study, strengths related with fire investigation of fire stations are analyzed and methods for the capacity building of their fire cause investigation are suggested. The methods for capacity building of fire cause investigation suggested are focused on using potential and strengths of current fire fighting and enhancing internal capacity rather than reinforcing investigation personnel, organization, and equipment and ensuring investigation power. The methods suggested in this study are as follows. 1) Because fire investigation results are the basis of fire administration, fire marshals should change their awareness of the need of fire investigation; 2) A fire investigation system should be established to ensure statements of people concerned systematically; 3) A substantial system of fire cause investigation should be established to investigate fire scenes more than twice; 4) A substantial system of fire cause investigation should be established to use such materials as CCTV; 5) Extinguishing should be made in consideration of fire cause investigation and a scene preservation system after extinguishing should be established; 6) A fire investigation system should be established in connection with 119 first-aid and rescue teams and 7) Steps to raise the morale of fire investigation staff should be taken.

화재현장에서 소방공무원은 화염, 증기, 또는 고온물 등에 의하여 화상사고를 당하고, 이로 인하여 극심한 고통 받고 있다. 따라서 화상 예측에 대한 연구를 통해 화상을 방지할 수 있는 방법을 개발하여야 한다. 본 연구에서는 화재시 고온 열유속 조건하에서의 화상 발생에 대한 예측을 수치해석적 방법으로 수행하였다. 생체 열전달 방정식(Bio-heat transfer)을 이용하여 지배방정식을 유도하였으며, 유한차분법(Finite Difference Method)을 활용하여 피부조직에 대한 온도분포를 얻었다. 이를 바탕으로 한 손상함수를 이용하여 2도 화상의 발생 유무를 예측하였으며, 기존의 실험 결과[Stoll and Chianta]와 비교하여 좋은 예측 결과를 얻을 수 있었다.

Goverment and enterprises have been devoting a lot of dffort in order to prevent the loss of human and property due to a large, diversified fire, explosion, global warming and disasters caused by natural phenomena. But Enterprises came forward and running in the economy priority policy for profit-seeking until now in order to meet the macro purpose of quality improvement of national life and welfare promotion in company with National growth, as a result of lax risk management have had to endure the loss of precious lives and property. According to the '2007 Survey of public safety for the activation of the safety culture' of National Emergency Management Agency [NEMA], a insensitivity of safety in our society was surveyed 'a serious level'. In this study, surveyed need of 'step-by-step fire protection safety management system builds' in order to prevent fire safety accident and improvement of safety awareness level through a systematic management and real condition estimation of not only large business that can control risk management, but also small business that has a big risk to occur accident easily according to small budget and organization.

This study examined job satisfaction among fire protection system management workers in the fire industry and analyzed how job satisfaction affects turnover intention. The results revealed that, among the control variables, including age, rank, academic background, payment, total career, license, and tasks, significant differences in job satisfaction were found in the tasks between groups, while no significant differences in turnover were found in any control variable between groups. Additionally, the results revealed that, among the lower variables of job satisfaction, increased satisfaction with payment and organizational system affected the degree of turnover intention, while work and promotion did not. These results are to be used as data for human management of technicians and for creating alternatives. Future studies are required to establish a reasonable task rotation cycle for raising job satisfaction, to examine the current status of low-cost orders and countermeasures, and to analyze the direction of development of fire protection system management business.

This study intends to provide a model for the establishment of a rehabilitation room for the safety and rehabilitation of firefighters by proposing a basis for the establishment of a firefighter rehabilitation room at disaster sites. To achieve the research objectives, a questionnaire, frequency analysis, and variance analysis were conducted to assess the effectiveness of rehabilitation rooms for firefighters. Based on the results of the research, the policy suggestions for operating an effective rehabilitation room are as follows. An organization of the operation of the rehabilitation room should be established at each firefighting headquarters, and human resources must be secured for the operation of the rehabilitation room. In addition, detailed operating standards such as the operation contents of the rehabilitation room's operation manager and its operator, as well as its operation procedures should be prepared. Additionally, training to improve the rehabilitation room and its understanding is needed.
