Application of Fault Tree Analysis Method on Hazard Identification in Highway Construction

Abstract:

In engineering project, for a long time due to the particularity, risks and complex organization structure and management modes, etc. Construction safety has plagued the professionals and the general scholars, and highway construction is no exception. To ensure the safety of highway construction projects, hazard identification has become the top priority. Therefore, this paper proposes FTA of highway construction for hazard identification, introduces the basic steps and application process, and explain the application of this method with examples in detail. The application results of fault tree analysis verified this method is scientific and feasible.
