HazMat tools

HazMat tools for the FireOpsSim command hub

Add hazardous materials size-up, reference, spill, decon, and isolation planning tools to the same fireground toolkit as FireOps Calc and FirePumpSim.

HazMat Tools HubAll FireOps Tools

HazMat toolkit

Practical HazMat support tools for training, size-up, and planning.

FireOpsSim keeps HazMat tools separate from pump math but inside the same command hub, so firefighters can move from water supply and fireground tools to HazMat references without leaving the ecosystem.

HazMatHazMat Size-Up Checklist

Incident priorities, product ID, isolation, exposures, weather, resources, and notifications.

 ReferencePlacard & Class Reference

Quick training reference for common hazard classes and recognition cues.

 PlanningIsolation Zone Planner

Map out initial isolation and downwind protection dimensions chosen from ERG/SOP guidance.

 CalculatorSpill Volume Calculator

Estimate liquid spill volume from length, width, and depth for training and containment planning.

 PlanningDecon Corridor Planner

Estimate decon lane throughput and water usage for drills and preplans.

 WorksheetHazMat Incident Notes

A field-style note builder for product, container, weather, isolation, decon, and actions.

Why include HazMat?

It makes FireOpsSim feel like a full fireground toolkit.

HazMat calls often start with the same first-due crews who need pump, water supply, evacuation, and accountability tools. Adding HazMat pages expands Google reach while giving firefighters a useful reference pathway.

FAQ

HazMat tool questions

Are these tools a replacement for the ERG?

No. These pages are built to support training and quick organization. Responders should use current ERG guidance, SDS information, department SOPs, dispatch information, product specialists, and HazMat team direction for actual incidents.

Why include calculators?

Simple calculators help with training and planning: spill volume, water needs for decon, and mapping dimensions once a responder has the correct isolation distances from approved references.

HazMat training note: These tools are for education, pre-planning, drill support, and quick estimating. They do not replace the Emergency Response Guidebook, Safety Data Sheets, department SOPs, incident command, product specialists, or local HazMat team direction.
