Containment, approach, breach, clear, and occupant control describe which overarching concept?

• A. Six phases of structure operation
• B. SMEAC
• C. Containment phase
• D. Occupant Control

Answer: (A)

These terms map to the six-phase structure operation framework used in tactical entries. Containment prevents the situation from spreading and keeps bystanders safe; Approach moves toward the target with cover and readiness; Breach creates access into the structure; Clear conducts a systematic, room-by-room search and secure of the space; Occupant control handles people inside or around the structure and secures the environment. Together, they describe the coordinated sequence teams follow, not a single phase or a briefing model, which is why the overarching concept is the six phases of structure operation. SMEAC is a separate briefing format, and the others are individual phases or objectives within the framework rather than the whole sequence.
