Abstract

From an accident at 2:00 a.m. in November 2nd, 2012 that one fire-fighter died while suppressing the E land World Inc. Fire in Bupyeong-Gu, Incheon, we concluded the problem and the improvement method of using the wireless communication (the two-way radio) that the fire safety officer and the safety crew use when identifying the safety of the fire scene. And after the investigation, we could find that the communication between the fire safety officer and the safety crew was difficult in the scene of the fire by voice because of much noise, so they could rely solely on the wireless communication. Therefore, we investigated the wireless communication and its frequency now used in Incheon Fire Safety Devision. Also, we compared with those of the military and the police. As a result, by making use of the wireless communication and its frequency currently possessed in Incheon Fire Safety Division, we found that the fire safety officer and the safety crew rescuing people at the risk of their own life in the various fire scene can communicate effectively.

본 연구는 2012년 11월 2일 02시경 인천광역시 부평구 (주)이랜드월드 화재진압 도중 소방공무원 1명이 순직한 사고에 대해서 현장조사를 실시하여 현장진입대원과 현장안전 점검관 간에 안전여부를 확인하는 의사소통 수단인 무선통신(무전기)에 대한 문제점과 개선방안을 도출하였다. 연구결과 화재현장에서는 각종 소음이 심해서 대원과 현장안전 점검관 간에 육성으로는 의사소통이 곤란하고 무선통신에만 의존할 수 있음을 알 수 있었다. 따라서 인천소방안전본부에서 사용하고 있는 무전기와 주파수의 운용에 대해서 조사하였다. 또한 군과 경찰과도 비교해 보았다. 연구시험결과 인천소방안전본부에서 보유하고 있는 무전기와 주파수를 효과적으로 운용하면 현장안전점검관이 각종 재난현장에서 목숨을 걸고 화재나 인명구조 활동을 하는 대원의 안전여부 확인하는 의사소통을 원활히 할 수 있는 것으로 나타났다.
