Περίληψη:	Knowledge and models of firefighting are of great importance for decisions on presuppression planning, dispatching of firefighting forces and operational planning of fire suppression. Significant research effort has been devoted to built such knowledge so far. However, all such information has to be interpreted carefully because it can be affected by various local factors. One example of missing information in regard to firefighting performance is the rate of hose laying by ground forces trying to reach and follow the head or flanks of a fire. Such knowledge is necessary for modelling fire suppression in countries such as Greece where direct attack on the flames using water provided by fire trucks is the main ground firefighting method. The study presented here is an experimental effort to identify some of the key factors affecting the hose laying rate and to establish some initial values for commonly encountered situations in Greece. Data were collected by building hose lays in Aleppo pine (Pinus halepensis) forests with shrub understory on mount Hymettus near Athens, Greece. The hose lays were built by professional firefighters on forest roads or trails that did not hinder their movement. The parameters that were varied were a) Number of firefighters (FF); there were 2 or 3 firefighters laying hose in addition to the driver, as is usually the case with firetrucks in Greece b) Site slope (%) (SLOPE); it varied between -28 and 27%, and c) Length of hose lay (LENGTH); three lengths were selected: 100, 200, and 300 m. The trials were timed with a chronometer and a hose laying rate (HLR) was calculated. Multiple linear regression analysis of the data resulted in the following equation:
