This study verifies effects of the distribution of fire fighting equipment on the satisfaction of fire fight equipment among fire officers and the mediating effect of the reliability of fire fighting equipment on the relationship between the two variables in order to provide preliminary data on the development of fire fighting equipments. Fire officers from the seven fire stations located in Gyeonggi-do province were selected and surveyed to achieve the purposes of the study. Using AMOS 18.0, structural equation modeling were applied to analyze the data. Major findings are as follows. First, the propriety of the amount of distribution of fire fighting equipment and the timeliness of distribution have positive effects on the reliability of fire fighting equipment. Second, the reliability of fire fighting equipment has a positive effect on the satisfaction of fire fighting equipment. Third, the propriety of the amount of distribution of fire fighting equipment has a positive effect on the satisfaction of fire fighting equipment. It was found that the reliability of fire fighting equipment has a partial mediating effect on the relationship between the propriety of the amount of distribution of fire fighting equipment and the satisfaction of fire fighting equipment.

현대사회는 복지국가를 지향하는 경향이 강화되면서 고위험사회로서 치닫고 있다. 이러한 사회변화의 추세는 안전에 대한 국민의 관심과 정부의 정책변화를 요구하기 시작했다. 재난으로 부터 안전을 지키기 위한 노력의 일환으로 체험학습이 중요한 요소로 등장하기도 한다. 이런 사회적 관심의 변화는 박물관을 통한 체험학습으로 그 목적을 이룰 수 있다. 그동안 우리의 관심 밖에 있던 소방유물에 대한 관심과 소방기본법에 명시된 소방박물관 설립에 관한 조항이 소방유물에 관심을 갖도록 하였다. 비록 짧은 소방역사를 재조명하고, 관련 유물을 찾아 보관과 전시를 통한 체험 학습장으로 박물관의 필요성이 강조되었다. 본 연구는 소방박물관 설립의 필요성과 전시에 필요한 소방유물을 분류하여 전시 가치를 높이는 방안을 제시하고자 시작하였다.

The extra session of the 17th National Assembly convened lastly had passed the law on the promotion of the fire industry. Therefore, the development of the fire industry discussed insignificantly in accordance with the establishment of the law. In this important time, this study was intended to derive tasks for development through researching the concept and developing process of the fire industry and forecasting the industry. For defining the concept of the fire industry, this study researched meaning, the present status and features of the industry. For study of developing process of the fire industry, this study analysed fire law and system, fire codes, fire products and development of fire market. The analyses were processed as a unit of every 10 years from 1960's. Consequently, this study presented some tasks for development of the fire industry such as fire inspection system, fire products circulation system, separated ordering system, managing system of fire facilities and technical R & D of the fire industry based on analysing and forecasting the fire industry.

현재 국내에는 소방대상물들의 그 수가 많아, 제도적인 관리 감독하기에 어려워 이를 통합관리 하기 위한 U-지역 소방모니터링 시스템을 제안한다. 본 시스템은 건물화재안전 상태지수, 즉 건물화재 대응능력지수와 소방대 화재대응능력지수의 곱으로 산정되는 값을 이용하여 지역 내 소방대상물들을 모니터링 함으로써 소방대상물들의 관리와 대응이 보다 효율적인 통합관리 체계가 이룰 수 있다.

Because the fire service demands are increasing and forms are diversified, the first thing you must do is to make up the fire service budget to keep fire service power sufficiently. Such budget allocation leads to supply enough fire service people want and results in social welfare satisfaction. If the budget of fire service is not enough to meet with its power, sufficient security of the fire fighters would be impossible. Also, when the urgent disasters occur, the government cannot cope with them effectively. In fact, loss of many lives and properties took place in some cities and kuns because of that. The purpose of this study is to investigate the influence of fire service budget for fire service force. To do this, this study reviews fire service budget, fire service force. And this study sets up three hypotheses based on the theoretical backgrounds and the past research. The statistical method used for the verification of hypotheses is multiple regression analysis. The analysis showed that fire service budget per head variable was positive significant, fire service budget ratio variable was not significant. Also, public facilities tax variable was negative significant. Therefore, the analysis showed that public facilities tax couldn't fill the role as a earmarked tax.

Central government moves welfare, education, and public fire service that need a lot of budget to local governments. But, central government don't give a enough finance support to local governments to implement those services. Therefore, local government suffer from the financial pressure. Fire service is supplied by province government in Korea. Public facilities tax is an object tax for fire service in province government. But, since total revenue of public facilities tax is just about 30% of fire service budget, the financial pressure of local governments has been increasing and the fire services could not been improved comparing with the increasing demands for the services. The purpose of this article is to examine a stable tax system for fire service. To do so, this study analyzes the fire public service budget, finds out some problems, and compares with developed countries to solve these problems.

In Korea, about 80 academic departments related to fire science are in operation throughout the country, but fire science is not included as a branch science in the science classification system acknowledged by the Ministry of Education, Science and Technology and its position as a science is not solid yet. In response to this problem, research is being made actively to establish fire science recently. This study aims at composing the fire service policy theory which is one of sub areas of fire science. First, the concept of fire service policy should be established, and fire service policies should be divided into different types. In addition, it is necessary to examine the direction of the development of fire service policies in Korea, and the unique characteristics of fire service policies should be described. Next, we will mention fire service policy making and participants, theories on the determinants of fire service policies, the execution of fire service policies, and the evaluation of fire service policies. Particularly, based on the peculiarity of fire service, it is necessary to explain policies on fire prevention and precaution, fire investigation, rescue and first aid, public campaigns for safety and prevention, fire insurance, etc. Finally, we suggest the future directions of fire service policies according to the change of environment in the future.

Recently, it is imperatively necessary to expand fire services funds for providing high quality of fire services. This study is to propose the plan of funds expansion for fire services to cope with a hefty increase of fire services demands in a local autonomous entity era. As alternatives of funds expansion, the study suggests the increase of fire public facilities tax rate and extracting new funds by establishing local government firms such as fire hospitals and fire repair firms. In addition, the study also proposes establishing a new common fire facilities tax, imposing fire services tax on gas tax, imposing public facilities tax on electricity tax, and transferring fire services expense to a local autonomous entity.

The aim of the study intends to investigate the fire safety awareness level of the young children's parents in Seoul and to provide the base data in the education for the fire safety. The results of the study are as follows. The young children's parents consider the fire safety awareness level of our society low, though their fire safety awareness level be above the average. The young children's parents choose infants schools as appropriate place to receive education for fire safety. And the young children's parents consider the development and diffusion of fire-safety teaching materials for young children to be supplied first of all. Also the young children's parents recognized observation learning and a field trip activity as appropriate teaching-learning method for fire-safety education.
