Abstract:

The spate of fire outbreaks and the lack of capacity to mitigate the incidence in most urban areas reflect the violation of physical planning regulations and relevant building codes. In the past two decades, the peri-urban neighbourhoods have witnessed rapid developments as a result of the growing population in these areas. However, the level of compliance of various developments with the provisions of the existing National Fire Safety Code remains unclear. Consequently, an assessment of the adequacy of fire safety provisions vis-à-vis the effectiveness of the fire safety standards in rapidly

Abstract:

Building fires pose a serious risk to people, property and the environment. Numerous factors, such as human mistakes, electrical issues, heating systems, combustible items, might cause fire accidents. The effects of fire can be disastrous, resulting in accidents, fatalities, and significant building damage. Compared to fires in low-rise structures, high-rise building fire incidents pose numerous difficulties and a greater risk. High-rise building's vertical structures, greater resident capacity, and intricate infrastructure make fire fighters and evacuating residents more difficult to escape.

Furthermore, the cases where the fire causes have been determined, do not provide the necessary information to comprehend why the fire started.

This study, therefore, explored the factors responsible for the high incidences of fires in Port-Harcourt, Nigeria. As phenomenological research involving humans, a 5-point Likert scale cross-sectional questionnaire survey instruments were developed using online Google forms to evaluate people

Abstract:

On April 9, 2020, Thermal Oxidizer (TOX) at PT. XY burned. Its function is to control exhaust emissions by burning harmful organic compounds. In this case, the Waste Heat Recovery Unit (WHRU) located above the TOX combustion chamber failed. Gas Turbine Generators (GTG) failed. This study uses a fishbone diagram approach to identify the cause of the fire. Maintenance policies, machine errors, human error, extreme environmental conditions, and inadequate operational procedures are some of the causes. The results of the analysis show that improving workers' operational skills, regular equipment i

According to various studies, the human factor is the cause of the majority of accidents at production. Unintentional errors or negligent attitudes to work are the causes of unsafe actions of employees. Observation of the indices of unsafe actions of employees, identification of weaknesses, prediction of potential accidents, and the development of preventive measures are the ba

Iron ore pelletizing plants present several types of hazards and risks that can contribute to occupational incidents and material losses. Hazard Identification and Risk assessment is a process to identify causes and consequences including significance level considering both probability and consequences of occurrences. Henceforth, preventive and mitigation measures are established, communicated, and verified to prevent unwanted incidents and events. In 1950 the National Safety Council introduced the hierarchy of controls inspired by a philosophy that controlling exposures to occupational hazard

Abstract:

This study systematically analyzes the coupling mechanisms and causes of fire risks in oil depot-photovoltaic (PV) hybrid systems during operation, proposing targeted prevention and control strategies. Research indicates that the fire risks in such systems primarily manifest in three coupled forms: spatial interaction, energy conduction, and spatiotemporal superposition. For risk mitigation, the paper emphasizes the necessity of corrosion-resistant material modifications, the criticality of optimized safety distance design, and the requirements for establishing a dynamic risk management system
