Research on Risk Assessment Technology of the Major Hazard in Harbor Engineering

The increased construction of harbor infrastructure has led to distinct safety problems recently. A lack of an efficient risk assessment method to evaluate the major hazard (procedure) in harbor engineering has become a vital reason for frequent grave accidents in harbor engineering area. This work, taking the features of harbor engineering into account and starting from the basic concept of "risk", sets a risk level evaluation standard for both accident consequence measure index and accident possibility measure index based on the survey of current situation of construction enterprises, thus realizing the quantitative assessment and classification towards major hazard and providing rules for major hazard risk assessment on harbor engineering project in the future.
