Testing Selected Personal Protection Items of Firefighters in Combined Conditions of Mechanical Loads and Temperatures Occurring during Gas LNG Leaks

The article examined selected individual protection used during rescue and fire-extinguishing activities. Fire helmet and special shoes were examined under conditions resembling the operational conditions of LNG gases. The assessment of the equipment consumption was based on strength tests. The main...
