Purpose: This study identifies the impact on composition of the firefighting organization, fire command ability, and public opinion operation on organizational citizenship behavior for fire officials to respond to the earthquake disaster, and provides practical implications as basic data for firefighting organizations to cope with the earthquake disaster. Method: Questionnaire survey was performed for 159 fire officials, and the surveyed data was statistically analyzed by using SPSS 22.0 program. Result: First, the results of the verification of the hypothesis showed that the composition of the fire organization, firefield command ability and public opinion operation have a positive impact on organizational citizenship behavior. Second, the relative contribution of independent variables to the dependent variables was identified in the order of composition of fire organization, fire command ability and public opinion operation. Conclusion: The implications of this study suggested from a practical perspective that the government needs to organize firefighting organizations, develop firefield command ability and operate public opinion in advance in order to respond to earthquakes.

실규모급 화재 실험의 신뢰성 있는 발열량 측정을 위해서 흡입 배관의 직경 1.6 m, 직선길이 26m, 후드 직경 10 m 그리고 흡입용량 $2,000m^3/min$ 이상의 대형 콘 칼로리미터를 구성하여 헵탄의 화재 크기별 연소 실험을 진행하였다. 발열량 측정을 비교 분석하기 위해서 산소 소모 지수법, 질량 소모법, 복사열 그리고 대류열 측정 기법에 따라서 각각의 발열량을 산출하고 크기를 비교하였다. 그 결과 대형 콘 칼로리미터에 의해서 측정한 산소 소모 지수법은 이론 발열량에 해당하는 질량 소모법과 최대 약 2.3 % 정도, 복사열에 의한 발열량 산출법은 12.2 % 정도, 연소면적에 의한 이상적인 발열량과는 최대 30 % 정도, 그리고 대류열만 고려한 경우 약 50 % 정도 차이가 나는 것을 확인하였다.

This paper was dealing with the change of academic meaning for activities of volunteer firefighter by enforcement of "Act on Volunteer Fire Brigade Establishment & Operation". For that, we checked the references including definition, origin, history, activities, and characteristics of volunteer firefighter. In addition, we confirmed the differentiating activity characteristics between the volunteer firefighter and the general volunteer. In result, the characteristics of the volunteer firefighter activities did not have with the spontaneity of the general volunteer activities due to Article 3 (appointment of volunteer firefighter), Article 4 (dismissal of volunteer firefighter), and Article 9 (working conditions of volunteer firefighter, etc) of "Act on Volunteer Fire Brigade Establishment & Operation". Finally, we could not interpret that the characteristics of the activities of volunteer firefither is same with the general volunteer activities. The result in this paper is expected to serve as a basis for the research of the volunteer fire department in Korea.

The purpose of this study is to reveal the causal relationship between the demographic characteristics of international students living in Korea and the effect of Korean language level on safety awareness. It was confirmed that there was a significant difference in all areas such as life safety awareness, fire safety awareness, and disaster safety awareness depending on the area of residence. The results to analyze the effect of Korean language expression and comprehension ability on safety consciousness are as follows. First, it was found that Korean expression ability had a positive (+) effect on life safety awareness but did not have a significant effect. Comprehension ability had a negative (-) effect on life safety awareness but did not have a significant effect. Second, it was found that Korean expression ability had a significant effect on fire safety awareness and had a positive (+) influence relationship. Finally, it was found that the Korean language expression ability had a significant effect on disaster safety awareness and had a positive (+) influence relationship. It is necessary to strengthen the awareness of safety for international students while staying and living in Korea, and when teaching Korean, Korean language comprehension education on safety-related topics as well as daily Korean must be strengthened.

The aim of this study was to investigate the wearing acceptability of chemical protective clothing during fires and to provide basic data for the safety of firefighters. The results of the study were as follows: Wearer acceptabilities of chemical protective clothing under static movement (e.g., looking at the ceiling with maximum head bending, wrapping one's arms around oneself, sitting obliquely on the floor, and maintaining a crouching position) were 21.7%-47.8% lower than those of general uniforms. When wearing chemical protective suits, the acceptability under static movement was statistically low (p < .001). Wearer acceptabilities of chemical protective clothing under dynamic movement (e.g., running, lifting a heavy object (20 kg) up to the waist, lifting and moving a heavy object (20 kg) by 1 m, lifting a stretcher and walking forward, and lifting a stretcher and walking backward) were 19.2%-47.8% lower than those of general uniforms. When wearing chemical protective suits, the acceptability under dynamic movement was also statistically low (p < .001).
