Facility System Safety Analysis
Facility system safety analysis is applied to a facility from its initial design through its demolition. This perspective is often referred to as the Facility Acquisition Life Cycle.
The term "facility" implies a physical structure or group of structures in a specific geographic site, the surrounding areas near the structures, and the operational activities in or near the structures. Some aspects that facility system safety address are:
- structural systems,
- HVAC systems,
- electrical systems,
- hydraulic systems,
- pneumatic systems,
- fire protection systems,
- water treatment systems,
- equipment and material handling, and
- normal operations (e.g., parking garage) and unique operational activities (e.g., chemical laboratories).
This Life Cycle approach also applies to all activities associated with the installation, operation, maintenance, demolition and disposal rather than focusing only on the operator.
