Abstract
The aim of this report has been to perform a risk analysis of Iggesund Paperboards paperboard factory in Iggesund and from the result draw conclusions on how to develop the methodology of economical risk analysis. The risk analysis consequences are expressed in economical terms and the measurement of the risk is presented as the expected annual cost due to fire. The model which is used is based on an event tree which describes what happens if a fire breaks out in the building. The effect of different fire prevention measures, such as sprinkler, fire compartments etc. is modeled by using a combination of expert judgement and statistics. Since the scope of the risk analysis deals with the complete building, some relative simple and partly... (More)
