Article Preview

Abstract:

Fire event is the one of most severe event on the bridge. Fire event on the bridge has been reported annual average 8 cases in South Korea. Especially Bucheon viaduct fire cause catastrophic damage on the traffic system. This study developed and conducted fire risk assessment for existing bridge on the highway. Entire risk assessment procedure divided into 3 sections, PRA, SRA and DRA. PRA check fire scenario possibility. SRA check key parameter of fire risk by checklist. DRA is a precision risk assessment and find what part makes bridge high risk.
