32 Introduction to Fire Risk Assessment
33 Definitions Risk Assessment The quantitative evaluations of the likelihood of undesired events and the harm or damage being caused, together with value judgements concerning the significance of the results. Risk Management The identification, measurement and control of risks that threaten the assets and earnings of a business or other enterprise Risk Control The prioritisation of risks and the introduction of measures that might be put in place to reduce, if not prevent, the harm from occurring.
34 Definitions Hazard Hazard is anything that can cause harm Look for hazards Don t forget your own experience. Risk Risk is the chance (large or small) of harm actually being done look for the hazard then assess the risk.
35 W hat isrisk Assessment? Something we all do subconsciously May involve value judgements on the significance of the risks Risk assessment really only puts onto a formal structured basis something that we all do anyway. Risk = f (frequency, consequences)
36 RISK S?
37 Examplesfrom US Statistics Murdered in any year 1:11,000 Seriously injured in a car accident 1:40 Death caused by passive smoking 1:30,000
38 Risk Assessment Methods Elementary method (Home Office method) The risk value matrix method An industrial method An algorithmic method Hazard operability study (HAZOP) Hazard analysis (HAZAN) Fault tree analysis HTM 86 - Fire risk assessment in hospitals Risk Ranking and Hazard Indices
39 Elementary M e thod Step 1: Identify fire hazards - Combustible materials, Sources of ignition, Work processes Step 2: Identify location of people at significant risk Step 3: Evaluate the risks - Are existing fire safety measures adequate? - Control of ignition sources/sources of fuel - Fire detection/warning, Means of escape, Means of fighting fire, Maintenance and testing of fire precautions - Fire safety training - Carry out any improvements needed Step 4: Record findings and actions taken - Prepare a fire management plan Step 5: Keep risk assessments under review - Revise as and when necessary
40 Risk Value Matrix Method We define the probability that a fire event will occur as the fire risk, and the harm that would result from that event as the fire hazard. Risk Value = Fire Hazard Value x Fire Risk Value
41 Risk Value Matrix Method Classification Tables Fire Hazard Fire Risk Description Value Description Negligible 1 Unlikely Slight 2 Possible Moderate 3 Quite Possible Severe 4 Likely Very Severe 5 Very Likely
42 Risk Value Matrix FIRE HAZARD VALUE FIRE RISK VALUE RISK CATEGORY LOW NORMAL HIGH
43 IndustrialMethod Gather information Identify all hazards Re-assess Evaluate risks and prioritise Set suitable and attainable control objectives and Identify necessary control measures to meet these objectives Monitor controls Revise Yes No Record Review Are there any changes to the identified hazard? No Yes
44 An Algorithmic M e thod
45 HazardOperability Study (HAZOP) Preferred for use in nuclear, chemical, and petrochemical industries Applied to a line diagram of the apparatus, line by line Guide words are used to decide if a hazard exists or could exist if certain events happened Typical guide words are: None e.g. no flow: would that be hazardous? More of and Less of When hazards have been identified decisions are taken to eliminate them as far as possible
46 Hazard Analysis (HAZAN) Follows HAZOP 1study Hazards have to be assessed and decisions, taken about eliminating them In situations where little or no guidance is available HAZAN is applied. Accident risk is compared with a target or criterion in order to decide on a course of action.
47 Hazard Analysis (HAZAN) HAZAN has to 2answer three questions: HOW OFTEN will the hazard occur? WHAT will be the consequences to employees, the public and to the plant? HOW do these compare to the target or criterion?
48 HTM 86 -Fire risk assessmentin hospitals Specific method for hospitals Based on requirements of HTM 85 Premises split into discrete units i.e. Outpatients Pharmacy Physiotherapy ITU
49 HTM 86 -Fire risk assessmentin hospitals The assessment is carried out in 5 stages by considering the following: Stage 1 Dependency of patients Stage 2 Existing fire hazards Stage 3 Existing fire precautions Stage 4 Recording the assessment Stage 5 What, if any compensations are required
50 HTM 86 - Firerisk risk assessmentin hospitals- Compensatory Factors The compensatory factor matrix is complicated and allows for the compensation of a poor feature only by the identification of a high standard of certain other precautions. i.e. a high hazard identified in Fires started by patients can only be compensated for by a high standard of either observation or alarm and detection systems.
51 HTM 86 Compensator y Factors Inadequate Feature High hazard rooms (i.e. Boilerhouse) Alarm and detection system Single direction means of escape Travel distance Possible Compensatory Factors AFD system Sprinklers Observation Staff Sprinklers Observation AFD system Travel distance Escape lighting Staffing levels Smoke control Observation AFD system Refuge provision Staffing levels Smoke control Degree Of Compensation Total Total Total Total Total Partial Total Partial Partial Total Total Partial Total Partial Total Total Stairways Height above ground Total Elements of structure Sprinklers Total External envelope protection Compartmentation Sprinklers Total Total Height above ground Stairways Refuge Compartmentation Access for Fire Brigade Partial Partial Partial Partial
52 HeatRelease Ratesfrom Fires 1kW 50 kw 1 MW 10 MW 100MW = 1 bar electric fire = Waste bin fire = Armchair fire = Room fire = Large industrial fire
53 Design Fire Growth Rates Dwelling Office Shop Hotel reception Hotel bedroom Picture gallery Industrial storage Industrial plant room = Medium = Medium =Fast = Medium = Medium =Slow = Ultra fast = Ultra fast
54 Risk Ranking and Hazard Indices Defined as the process of modelling and scoring hazard and exposure parameters to produce a rapid and simple assessment of relative risk.
55 Risk Ranking and Hazard Indices Values are assigned to selected variables based on statistical evidence, professional judgement and past experience Variables are representative of both positive and negative fire safety features Values are operated on by some combination of arithmetic functions to arrive at a single value The resulting figure is then compared to other similar assessments or to a standard to rank the fire risk
56 Sum mary Fire Risk Assessment is a requirement of the Fire Precautions (Workplace) Regulations 1997 (amended 1999). Risk assessment = evaluation of the likelihood of undesired events and the harm or damage being caused, together with value judgements concerning the significance of the results. Simple process in general varied tools available to assist. Not ruled by economics, the safety of people must always come first
