Abstract

Major hazard installations may be analysed to determine their hazard warning structure. Such a hazard warning analysis may be used to give the assurance that not only is the probability of a major accident very low, but that the probability is also low that it will not be preceded by a number of warnings on which action can be taken. The concept is illustrated by examples based on actual cases.
