Abstract:

Every business involves risk, but due to its nature, construction business involves more risk than many other industries. Therefore, risk assessment is indispensable to the success of construction companies in terms of, preventing dramatic financial losses. When the decision process for expanding the operations in the international construction market is concerned, it becomes more important for companies to analyze the risk of the target country. For this reason, construction firms benefit from many different risk assessment methods. Contractors prevalent practice of risk assessment is identif

The Fukushima Daiichi accident prompted the nuclear community to find a new solution to reduce the risky situations in nuclear power plants (NPPs) due to beyond-design-basis external events (BDBEEs). An implementation guide for diverse and flexible coping strategies (FLEX) has been presented by Nuclear Energy Institute (NEI) to manage the challenge of BDBEEs and to enhance reactor safety against extended station blackout (SBO). To assess the effectiveness of FLEX strategies, probabilistic risk assessment (PRA) methods can be used to calculate the reliability of such systems. Due to the uniquen

A national survey of the competence of enforcing officers showed that they rarely had the necessary expertise to judge the safety of shows.
