LOOKING BACK TO YOUR LESSON
In any type of emergencies, learning basic first aid is one of the important things that we
should learn. Based on your learning in basic first aid, can you recall the different safety
measures that you need to consider in giving or applying first aid treatment on the following
situations? Write your answers on your activity notebook.
1. Bleeding wound in upper arm.
2. A person who is not breathing and unconscious but with pulse.
3. Nose bleeding.
4. Snakebite.
5. First degree burn.
In survival, aside from learning basic first aid, safety is also one of the things that we need
to consider. Like in essential camping, learning knot tying would be a great help to avoid
accidents. With this, let us talk about the different basic knots that you need to learn.

BRIEF INTRODUCTION
WHAT IS A KNOT?
A knot is an intentional complication in cordage which may be useful or decorative.
Practical knots may be classified as hitches, bends, or splices: a hitch fastens a rope to another
object; a bend unites two rope ends; and a splice is a multi-strand bend or loop. (Wikipedia.org)
A knot may also refer to a stopper or knob at the end of a rope to avoid that end from
slipping through a grommet or eye. Knots have enthusiastic interest since age-old times for
their workable purposes. (Wikipedia.org)
There are variety of knots, each with properties that make it suited for an area of tasks.
Some knots are used to link the rope (or other knotting material) to other objects such as another
rope, cleat, ring, etc. Some knots are used to tie-up or compress objects. Decorative knots
usually bind to themselves to produce interesting patterns. (wikipedia.org)

WHAT IS KNOT TYING?

Knot tying consists of the techniques and skills employed in tying a knot in rope, nylon
webbing, and others. The correct tying of a knot can be the difference between a good-looking
knot and a confused one, and safety. It is important to recognize the differences between what
works, and what doesn't. For example, many knots pull through, particularly if they are not
backed up, usually with a single or double overhand knot to make sure the end of the rope
doesn't make its way through the main knot, resulting all strength to be lost. (wikipedia.org)
The tying of a knot may be very direct (such as with an overhand knot), or it may be more
difficult, such as a monkey's fist knot. Tying knots accurately requires an understanding of the
type of material being tied (cord, string, monofilament line, kernmantle rope, or nylon
webbing). For example, cotton string may be very small and easy to tie with lots of internal
resistance to keep it from collapsing once tied, while stiff 5/8" thick kernmantle rope will be
very difficult to tie and may be so slick as to tend to come apart once tied. (wikipedia.org)

Knot tying has different types. Here, we are going to talk about the 8 basic knots.
1. Figure-eight knot
The figure-eight knot or figure-of-eight knot is a type of stopper knot. It is very important in
both sailing and rock climbing as a method of stopping ropes from running out of retaining
devices. (Ekram, 2011)
