Description of (TTL) Turn Table Ladder

   Well as a description of Turn Table Ladder, Fire extinguishers (also known as fire trucks or fire equipment in some provinces) is a vehicle designed primarily for fire purposes.

   The terms "fire engine" and "fire truck" can often change;  However, in some fire department/fire services they refer to an independent and special type of vehicle.

   The primary objectives of the fire mission include taking the fire brigade to the scene, providing water to fight the fire and other equipment required by the fire department.  Special equipment is used to provide hazardous materials mitigation and technical protection.

   A typical modern fire engine will store a variety of fire extinguishers, including pumps, water tanks, hoses, ground ladder, hand tools, self-respetory equipment, and medical supplies.

   Most fire fighting vehicles are based on standard vehicle models (although some parts can be upgraded to meet vehicle use demands).

   They typically install audio and visual warning as well as communication devices such as two-way radios and mobile computer technology.
