The firefighters arriving on the scene of a trench rescue are often in a race against time. Because trenches are different sizes and widths, the first task is to get boards together that will fit in shoring operations. Pneumatic braces, which expand with air pressure, can be inserted against walls on either side of a trench. An air pocket can form at the bottom of a trench, so quickly digging out trapped workers is essential. Trench rescue training is highly specialized and requires a good deal of engineering knowledge. That’s why Firefighters Bookstore has put together a collection of trench rescue training books which detail the strategies and tactics involved in the dangerous operation. Among the collection’s highlights:.
