TYPE/CLASSIFICATION OF FIRES

Hello and Thank you for choosing flamencoengineers.blogspot.com.
In my course of training as a technical trainer and teacher this question has been asked regularly and it seems to confuse trainees.
fire is classified according to the cause/ source.
Basically there are 5 classes.
but depending whether it is British or American classification.
This are Classes

- A-- common workshop materials eg wood paper clothing
-B----- Flammable liquids eg petrol, paints thinners
_-C- live electrical equipment
-D- combustible metals
K---- cooking oils, animal and plants

This are well detailed here below

Can you now classify fires when Asked to in an exam or interview situation??I hope you can?

Now lets look at the types of fire extinguishers to use

Metal Joining Techniques

Thank you for choosing flamencoengineers.blogspot.com. We always work hard to keep you, entertained, informed and updated. welcome Soldering, brazing, and welding are all methods of joining two or more pieces of metal and selected other materials. They are also methods used to fill gaps in metal parts. In welding, the two metals (or thermoplastic) must be similar . For example, copper cannot be welded to steel. Welding uses high temperatures to melt and join two metal parts. A filler metal is often used as well. When properly done, the finished weld is as strong as the surrounding metal. But if the process is not carried out and the welder applies too much heat, it can change the metal’s properties and weaken the weld. There are several different types of welding, including metal inert gas (MIG), arc, electron beam, laser, and stir friction. Welding is also widely used to slice apart large metal structures by melting through them.

DIFFERENCE BETWEEN BLAZING , SOLDERING AND WELDING

Hello , i was from a workshop technology class in kenya and students COULDN'T differentiate BRazing , s oldering and WELDING , lET me save the situation SOLDER Joining two metals together by melting a third filler metal between them; the two metals being joined do not melt. The filler metal (solder) melts at around 840 °F (450 °C). BRAZE Mechanically this is the same process as soldering. It can be distinguished from soldering by temperature: in brazing the filler metal melts above 840 °F (450 °C). Because of the higher temperatures a brazed joint is stronger than a soldered joint. WELD In this process two metals are joined by melting them together. Of these three methods welding involves the hottest temperatures and welded joints are the strongest. Keep this in mind as you move from soldering to brazing to welding: as the heat required for melting increases the strength of the joint also increases. OVERALL, DETERMINING W
