4.2.23
The lead instructor shall determine the rate
and duration of water flow necessary ...,
including the water necessary for control
and extinguishment of the training fire, the
supply necessary for backup lines to protect
personnel, and any water needed to protect
exposures.
NFPA 1142
NFPA 1403: 4.2 Structures and
Facilities
4.2.23.1
The minimum water supply and
delivery for the live fire training
evolutions shall meet the criteria
identified in NFPA 1142, Standard on
Water Supplies for Suburban and Rural
Fire Fighting.
NFPA 1142
Definition: 4.1.5
(1) Exposure Hazard
STRUCTURE WITHIN 50 FEET and
100 SQUARE FEET OR LARGER.
(2) If class 3 or 4 OH, within 50 ft of another building,
it is considered an exposure hazard regardless of
size.

The fire department shall develop the capability to
deliver the amount of water determined in
accordance with Sections 4.2 through 4.5 to the
incident scene at the rate shown in

What if the exposure is
larger than the structure
being burned?
Calculate water supply based
on the larger structure

Determining Minimum Water
Supplies
Go back to NFPA 1403: 4.2.23.2
A minimum reserve of additional water in
the amount of 50 percent of the fire flow
demand in 4.2.23.1 shall be available to
handle exposure protection or
unforeseen situations.
