Risk and Uncertainty in Dam Safety
|
|
Risk assessment has the potential to radically improve the way dam safety enhancements are evaluated and prioritised. Risk and Uncertainty in Dam Safety is one of the most comprehensive treatments to date of how to apply the risk assessment process to the evaluation of dam safety.
This 400+ page book has been described as both a practical reference manual for engineers conducting risk assessments and a ground breaking discussion of the theoretical considerations which must be understood in order to conduct legitimate, defensible risk assessments.
The principle focus of the guide is risk analysis as part of a formal risk assessment process. It is intended to provide a basis for dam owners to establish their own Standards of Practice for risk-based management of the safety of their dams in accordance with established principles of professional engineering practice. In developing a solid understanding of risk analysis through the use of the guide, owners can then develop various simplified approaches to meet their individual needs.
