🔍 Key Concepts

• Fire control plan content requirements under SOLAS and 46 CFR • Typical information shown for fire mains, fire pumps, and fire stations on vessel plans • Difference between system design details and location/identification details on plans

💭 Think About

• Which of these items would be most important for firefighters or crew to quickly locate during an emergency? • Think about what information is normally printed directly on the plan versus what might be found in technical specifications or in another document. • For each choice, ask: is this something I need to see on a drawing of the ship, or is it more of a numerical specification for designers and inspectors?

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify which items are usually shown as symbols and labels on a fire control or general arrangement plan (locations of equipment). • Consider which item would more likely be found in a technical data sheet or system design document rather than on a quick‑reference plan. • Check SOLAS/46 CFR guidance on fire control plan content for how they describe the fire main, pumps, and fire stations.
