Conducting an occupied building risk assessment?
Occupied buildings situated on major hazard sites must be designed to withstand all foreseeable events including fires, explosions, and toxic releases. The risk to people located within buildings can be severe as a result of blast overpressure from an explosion. Flame impingement and high thermal radiation could damage the building structure and hinder personnel exit from the building. If occupied buildings are not properly designed, smoke or toxic atmosphere ingress can lead to serious health issues or fatality. Occupied Building Risk Assessment (OBRA) demonstrate that people located within buildings are adequately protected.
This technical briefing will delve into past incidents, risk-based assessments and preventive measures to consider when conducting an occupied building risk assessment.
