"Imagine waking up in the middle of the night to the smell of smoke and the sound of alarms—would your family know what to do? Too many house fires happen where not everyone makes it out safely, often because they weren't prepared.Now, picture being stranded on the side of the road during a trip, miles from help, with no tools or plan to get moving again. During my time in law enforcement, I saw this happen far too often.On today's episode, we're tackling both of these topics: how to prepare your home and family in case of a fire, and how to be ready for safe travel this summer.Mentioned In This Episode:Muirhead Canning1791 Gunleather.com (Use discount code PREP15)Practical Prepping CoursesWeekly Newsletter & Free PDFFeatured ItemsExpanded Show NotesDownload The Episode HereIf you find value in the podcast, would you be willing to give back a little?You can do that one of several ways.     Go to our support page               OR     By starting your Amazon shopping from our website? --->  CLICK HERE        (We earn from qualifying Amazon purchases)Contact us:Practical PreppingWebsiteOur Sponsors:Practical Prepping CoursesMuirhead Cannery   (541) 298-1660 WebsiteProLine Digital GroupWebsiteEmailPodcast music written and recorded by Krista LawleyWebsite design and hosting by ProLine Digital Group.Podcasts Copyright 2025, P3 Media Group, LLC, and Practical Prepping Podcast

The gap between fire safety engineering and firefighting operations creates a profound challenge that affects building safety worldwide. Even experienced fire safety engineers - myself included - face uncertainty when designing for firefighters without being firefighters themselves. Yet many building codes explicitly require engineers to account for firefighting operations in their designs.This examination dives into the timeline analysis essential for effective firefighter support, from notification (when firefighters learn about the fire) to arrival at the building to actual intervention. Each phase contains complexities often overlooked: fire alarm systems might be delayed by human verification, architectural complexity can significantly slow down firefighters reaching the fire, and building conditions upon arrival dramatically affect intervention capabilities.The assessment of design fires represents one of the most challenging aspects of this engineering work. At what fire size will firefighters begin their intervention? The fire might be growing, steady-state, limited by compartmentation, or controlled by active systems. This crucial but uncertain consideration fundamentally shapes how we design for firefighter safety.Through computational fluid dynamics modelling, we can evaluate the building conditions firefighters will face. Rather than using simple pass/fail criteria, experienced engineers look for smoke layer behaviour and clear access paths. The gold standard is providing smoke-free routes from the building entry to the fire vicinity. When this isn't possible, we must carefully evaluate the conditions through which firefighters must navigate.Fire safety systems - from sprinklers to smoke control, information displays to architectural layouts - all dramatically influence firefighter effectiveness. Yet perhaps the most important principle is creating systems firefighters trust. Overly complex designs may be disabled by firefighters who don't understand them or don't trust them with their lives.The most effective approach combines rigorous engineering analysis with direct input from firefighters themselves. By understanding their actual needs, which might surprise you - we can design buildings that truly support those willing to risk everything to save others. What would your building design look like if you asked firefighters what they really need?Listen to the entire episode with Szymon Kokot here: https://www.firescienceshow.com/051-fire-science-in-eyes-of-a-firefighter-with-szymon-kokot/Want to know what happens in the building after a fire alarm?

The UK's Building Safety Act requires high-risk buildings to maintain comprehensive fire safety cases - living documents that identify hazards, mitigate risks, and establish clear accountability for building safety. This is the subject of my discussion with Chris Mayfield and Martyn Ramsden from OFR.• Safety cases differ from fire strategies by being owned by the building's accountable person rather than consultants• The Principal Accountable Person must take responsibility for preventing fire spread and structural failure• Safety cases must document hazards, protective measures, and management systems• The approach draws from lessons in high-hazard industries following disasters like Piper Alpha• Safety cases should follow a logical structure: building description, safety management, hazard identification, safety measures, emergency procedures, and conclusions• Bow tie diagrams help visualise threats, consequences, and barriers in a way all stakeholders can understand• For new buildings, safety cases integrate with the "gateway" approval system• Existing high-risk buildings (over 18m/7 stories with 2+ dwellings) must have safety cases ready for inspection• When properly implemented, safety cases create cultural change by helping everyone understand their role in safety----The Fire Science Show is produced by the Fire Science Media in collaboration with OFR Consultants.

He has 50 years of experience in security risk management. [2:49] Bill will tell us what's keeping him up at night in security, risk management, visitor management, and workplace safety in 2025. We'll also provide tips for risk managers on how to be more of a leading voice in finding a new location, renovating it, and installing security tech. [3:15] Interview! Bill Sako, welcome back to RIMScast! [3:33] Bill got into the business of security in 1974 by starting Sako & Associates, a security consulting firm. It became the second largest in the U.S. with 28 engineers and support staff, doing every kind of security project in buildings and venues. [3:54] Sako & Associates did security projects at U.S. Embassies, F.B.I. Headquarters, super highrise buildings all over the world, large mixed-use projects, and developing multiple security programs that have to meld together in a large, complicated building. [4:20] These projects include large medical centers and college campuses around the world. A lot of its work was done with architects in corporate America when they were developing office buildings. [4:39] Sako & Associates developed over $2.2 billion in security plans over many projects. [5:33] Today's security tech is transforming buildings into smarter and safer environments through advanced sensors, AI, and connectivity. AI-powered surveillance cameras detect unusual behavior, recognize faces, and track movement in real-time. [5:58] That technology was in its infancy 10 years ago. It's come a long way and the technology is becoming rock-solid. The systems can differentiate between threats and harmless activities to reduce false alarms and help the person monitoring the system understand them. [6:18] Access control to the building and tenant spaces within the building is provided through biometric scanners, mobile-based apps, and smart card readers, with logs for digital security auditing.  [6:37] Smart IoT sensors monitor temperature and air quality. They trigger alarms very quickly in case of fire, gas leak, or unauthorized entry, to keep the building occupants safe. [6:54] Automated threat response is provided through automatically locking doors, alerting authorities, and activating emergency lighting, in response to hazards and breaches. We've had this capability for 20 years, but it is being used more now. [7:27] Cloud-based surveillance allows remote monitoring by management and first responders through web access and smartphones to see the cameras in the building in real time. It's becoming a trend. [7:59] Cyber security measures, with increased connectivity, can provide solutions to protect networks from threats like hacking and data breaches to ensure physical security systems are uncompromised. [8:12] Fire response systems have been hardwired for years. Engineers are starting to implement connected capabilities for them. [8:39] Bill talks about companies paying to install cameras, but when a camera fails, not paying to replace them, leaving black monitor screens. That gave birth to predictive maintenance plans with established lifelines for any piece of equipment and budgets for replacement as needed. [9:49] All the functions of emergency management are being automated. These innovations collectively create smarter buildings that are more secure, efficient, and responsive to any potential threat. [10:40] Many times, the technology that's put into a building is assumed to be static. That's true until you make changes to the building. Then you have to update the system. [11:02] Security is a different ball game. Security is based on behaviors. The threat environment can change from hour to hour or day to day, depending on who's visiting the building and what's going on down the street. You have to have flexibility and people to operate the equipment. [11:28] The technology needs a human operator to interpret the signals and determine the right response in real time. AI and machine learning are great technologies and we're using them virtually in every piece of equipment going in. [12:09] You still need a human to be able to assess what's happening and how they're supposed to respond when multiple sensors are going off. Bill tells of a break-in when the right response was to send three armed security officers to the asset vault. The suspects were apprehended. [13:46] Bill explains some of the changes in security technology that have been incorporated as a result of COVID-19. Increased reliance on technology led to changes in security practices.  Touchless access control came about as a result of COVID-19. [14:28] Occupancy management lets building owners know who is in the building and allows for the building to be evacuated safely. [14:48] With people working from home, COVID-19 led to an expansion in remote monitoring. [15:02] Visitor management is important. Healthcare facilities realize today that they have to protect their staff and patients in the building. They need screening in the lobby and must use visitor management. Automated systems make it easy. [16:28] Touchless and mobile access control will be with us forever. Bill also includes hybrid security management, AI-powered surveillance and analytics, and moving security and surveillance to the cloud provides greater capability. Your command center can be your laptop. [17:35] As security moved more into the digital domain, we figured out how to operate across networks and maintain security for all the data we have. Bill says it's rock-solid today. [17:55] Bill believes cloud-based services are the way to go for most buildings today. It gives you the capability to do everything remotely. [18:04] Data-driven decision-making will stay with us for a long time. It allows you to predict and mitigate risk on the fly. You have to train people well to know how to respond to the data. [18:26] Zero trust is a practice where no one coming into the network is trusted without proof through multi-factor identification. Even the Chairman of the Board must be verified. [19:01] Bill continues with crisis management and business continuity planning. A bullet list is not a business continuity plan. With crisis management and business continuity, you have to train people so they understand the plans. [19:24] The pandemic introduced new security practices and accelerated the modernization of legacy systems. Security includes integrating legacy systems with new systems. Command centers may have multiple disparate systems in one security management enterprise system. [20:14] Plug Time! RIMS Webinars! On Wednesday, March 26th at 2:00 p.m. Eastern Time, members of the RIMS Strategic and Enterprise Risk Management Council will extend the dialog that began in the recent RIMS Executive Report “Understanding Interconnected Risks”. [20:33] On Thursday, March 27th, Descartes Underwriting will make its RIMS Webinar debut with a session about parametric insurance. On April 3rd, join Zurich for “Understanding Third-Party Litigation Funding”. [20:47] On April 10th, Audit Board will present “What CISOs Want Risk Executives to Know About Cyber Risk in 2025”. [20:54] Following the success of their recent webinar, HUB International returns for the next installment of their Ready for Tomorrow Series, “From Defense to Prevention: Strengthening Your Liability Risk Management Approach”. That session will be on April 17th. [21:10] On April 24th, RiskConnect returns to deliver “Better Together: The Marriage of Insurable Risk and Business Continuity”. [21:18 More webinars will be announced soon and added to the RIMS.org/webinars page. Go there to register. Registration is complimentary for RIMS members. [21:30] Let's Resume Our Dialogue about Security Risks with Bill Sako! [22:10] In 50 years of security work, Bill did not encounter many leaders with Risk in their titles. While all insurance is about risk, in the corporate world, only very large companies have risk officers. Everything is in its silo. Getting the silos to talk together can be a nightmare. [22:48] Typical buildings don't have risk managers. Corporate campuses may have a risk manager to manage 50 or 60 buildings. That person is strained. [23:02] When Telgian Engineering & Consulting is brought in for an audit or to develop a new system design for a client, they identify who the risk leader is, whatever title they may have. They team with the people who know the vulnerabilities and the threats of the organization. [23:47] Telgian has recommended to several clients that they should hire a risk management person on staff. In a lot of cases, they say they don't have the budget but they'll think about it for the future. At that organization, who is evaluating risk for them? [24:07] Telgian, as a consultant, takes that role for the organization while they're doing the assessment, creating detailed risk models. Then they educate the client to the extent that the client understands what the risks are and the risk mitigation techniques they could use. [24:47] Bill says the hard thing is to dig into organizations internally to find who that risk leader might be. Someone is doing it, even without the title. It might be the CEO. [25:36] In organizations with a titled risk officer, they may be siloed, in a lot of cases. That risk manager needs to understand whom to work with within the organization to address all the organization's security concerns. The siloes need to be taken down. [26:17] Telgian Engineering & Consulting has always had the responsibility to educate its clients. The clients may think they understand what security is and what the risks are, but they often have a very narrow view without seeing the big picture. [27:06] The person at the lobby reception desk of an office building is often the first line of defense. There may be security officers there. What happens when the visitor goes up the elevator? [27:38] The organization should provide security training for the lobby receptionist. They can see if a visitor is acting agitated. They can attempt to de-escalate an angry visitor. They need to be briefed on the organization's security practices, especially when they identify a threat. [29:23] When Telgian does an assessment, they don't want one point person to show them around. They want to talk to everybody who is in touch with what's going on in the organization. Receptionists are one of the primary sources of information for Telgian. [30:13] Bill says that risk leaders and officers need to find a way to become embedded in the organization and the things that are going on. The risk manager needs to be part of the security team, the facilities team, the legal team, and the IT team. [30:32] Bill has recommended to risk managers that they should set up monthly or bi-monthly meetings with the leaders of the siloes to discuss concerns and risks and how to solve those problems together. The risk manager is usually the right person to pull that team together. [31:42] Bill says identifying risks through AI on video cameras and following a visitor through the building is happening in many organizations now. This is critical for post-incident analysis. [33:07] One thing the government is great at is doing a full-blown report after an incident. That incident report winds up informing security of the risks to watch for. [33:19] On every consultation project, Bill got past reports upfront from the organization to see what the issues have been with the organization. They design security systems to meet those threats. Organizations have to do that to manage their risks properly. [33:42] Special thanks again to William Saco for joining us here on RIMScast.

In 1973, fire killed and injured more people in the United States than in any other industrialized nation in the world. The next year, Congress passed the Federal Fire Prevention and Control Act, a landmark bill that made significant investments in fire research, training, and education. Within a few decades, the U.S. had transformed from a fire-prone outlier, to arguably the safest country in the world.  Today on the podcast, we talk to Dick Gann, one of the most prolific fire researchers in U.S. history, about a new paper that he co-authored that commemorates the 50th anniversary of the Fire Prevention and Control Act. We discuss the legacy of this legislation, and explore several of the research achievements — many of which Gann himself was directly involved with — that have dramatically improved fire safety in the United States over the last half century.  LINKS:  Read the NIST Report, “A Legacy of Fire Safety”  Read the NFPA Journal article by Jesse Roman about why the Fire Prevention and Control Act is still more relevant than ever
