A fire fighting truck
is a vehicle designed to assist in fighting fires by transporting
firefighters to the scene and providing them with access to the fire,
along with water or other equipment. In some areas, the terms fire
engine and fire truck represent different types of firefighting
apparatus.
The fire engines you see at your local fire station or
roaring through your streets belong to a family of trucks that all
carry water for various purposes. Each type of truck has different
features to match the various tasks it is used for. Your ability to
accomplish your task at hand depends on the type of water or fire
fighting trucks used.
Fire fighting trucks
or engines are made specifically to fight fires in cities and
buildings. They have enough cabin space to carry a team of firefighters,
and storage for all of the equipment they use. There is usually a
ladder that can be mechanically raised and lowered to access higher
floors in buildings. The price of these trucks is enormous, so the
firefighters in your community need plenty of funding. Purchasing used
fire trucks can help make the price more manageable.
Fire
fighting trucks are also used to put out fires, but are used more in
large scale outdoor fires. They look drastically different from fire
engines. The tanker is usually not equipped to dispense water in a way
to directly fight fires, but it is used more for transporting large
amounts of water to the site of the fire. It is often connected to a
fire engine. Fire tankers consist of a diesel truck hauling a large
metallic tank. There is little room for storage, and room for only a
driver and one passenger.
Water trucks are similar to fire
tankers in form, but are used much differently. Water trucks are
frequently used at mines or quarries when a lot of dust is being kicked
up into the air. This dust can limit visibility for the workers and even
nearby drivers. Water trucks are equipped with nozzles, somewhat like
sprinklers, that dispense water in a large area around the truck. The
water carries the dust back to the ground.
