Kennett Square Apartments
Location: Kennett Square, PA
Fire Department: Kennett Regional Fire Department
Assisting Organization: Harkins Builders
A five-story type 5 wood frame multi-residential building in Kennett Square, PA. Our team visited the occupancy twice during the construction of the building and published a pre-incident plan a few months before the building was completed. The fire chief approached our team and requested our assistance in the development of a pre-plan for this new hazard.
2025 TRAINING EVENT
Application of Structural Pre-Plans Level 2
Our team worked with the members and staff of the Kennett Regional Fire District in the development of a Structural Pre-Plan for the Kennett Square Apartments, which was the focus of our 2025 training event. Members were provided with 6 hours of training over two evenings, qualifying the department with our level 2 training program.
Members and staff attended the classroom portion of our Level 2 course, providing them with an understanding of the application of Structural Pre-Plans.
Accessed to the Structural Pre-Plan was provided to members and staff on a tablet during the class, following along as our instructor reviewed the pre-plan with them.
After the classroom portion, members split into two teams. Team 1, comprised of incident commanders, acted as the incident command with a visual of the exterior of the building. Team 2, comprised of officers, staff, and members, remained in the classroom to act as responding and operating apparatus.
Team 1: Incident Command
Team 2: Apparatus Officers
The Simulation
Starting between floors 2 and 3, incident command and apparatus officers communicate a fire on all 3 floors of a type 5 wood frame apartment building as it follows pipe chases up to the fifth floor.
