RISKASSESSMENT&DMP

Risk assessment study dealswith identifying and evaluating themagnitude ofimpending risks to which the neighbouring population is exposed due tooccurrenceofaccidentsfromprojectconstructionanddevelopment.Thisassistsinillustratingtheguidelinesforpreparationofdisastermanagementplanwhichwillbeexecutedtohandlethesituationifanyemergency.Followingaretherisksthatareidentifiedinbuildings.

7.1FIRERISK

Fireismainlycausedinresidentialcomplexduetonegligence,shortcircuitsandmalfunctioningofgasregulator,tubeandsuchrelatedproducts.

At the proposed project, hazard occurrencemay result in on‐site implicationslike:

Fireand/orexplosion;

Leakageofflammablematerialandleadingtofire;

Naturalcalamitieslikeearthquakeetc.

Afireoriginatingonthebuilding’slowerfloorsisabletospreadthroughoutallthelevelsofthestructure.

In spite of the clear gravity of the above scenarios, these types of fire havehappenedrarelyintallbuildings.Moretypically,firesintallbuildingsyieldonlypartial structural damage. However, losses of life and property can still besubstantial.

Emergency prevention through good design, operation, maintenance andinspection are essential to reduce the probability of occurrence andconsequential effect of sucheventualities.However, it isnotpossible to totallyeliminatesucheventualitiesandrandomfailuresofequipmentorhumanerrors,omissionsandunsafeactscannotberuledout.Anessentialpartofmajorhazardcontrol has therefore, to be concerned with mitigating the effects of suchemergencyandrestorationtonormalcyattheearliest.

The overall objective of a disaster management plan is to make use of thecombinedresourcesatthesiteandoutsideservicestoachievethefollowing:

1.Tolocalizetheemergencyandifpossibleeliminateit;

2.Tominimizetheeffectsoftheaccidentorhazardonpeopleandproperty;

3.Effecttherescueandmedicaltreatmentofcasualties;



4.Safeguardotherpeople;

5.Evacuatepeopletosafeareas;

6.Informingandcollaboratingwithstatutoryauthorities;

7.Provideauthoritativeinformationtonewsmedia;

8.Initiallycontainandultimatelybringtheincidentundercontrol;

9. Preserve relevant records and equipment for the subsequent enquiryintothecauseandcircumstancesoftheemergency;and

10.Investigatingandtakingstepstopreventreoccurrence

TheDMPhasthereforetoberelatedtotheidentificationofsourcesfromwhichhazardscanariseintheconcernedarea.Theplantakesintoaccountactionsthatcan successfully mitigate the effects of losses/ Emergency need to be wellplanned so as they would require less effort and resources to control andterminateemergencies.

7.2PUBLICSAFETY

The incidenceof fireor otherdisasters occurring inbuildingsoften endangersthesafetyofthepersonsworkinginthestructure,intheeventofanemergency.People present in such structures often do not know proper emergencyprocedures,aggravatingfireand/orcausinginjuryanddeath.

Theonlywayofreducingthedamagetopubliclifeandpropertyisbyconductingfire safety drills and installing well equipped fire safety equipment’s such assmokedetectors,heatsensors,sprinklers,hosereel,firepanelsandfirealarms.Thepeopleworkinginbuildingshouldbemadewellconversantwithemergencyprocedures, such as closing doors when fleeing a fire, as well as staying inapartments,ratherthanattemptingtoescape.

It is recommended that mock‐drills should be carried out at least once in sixmonths.

7.3TERRORISM

Very tall buildings, which often serve as corporate, municipal, or nationalsymbols; they become the targets for terrorist attack. Appropriate securitymeasureswouldbe taken inandaround toensure limitedaccess tokeyareas,such as attached parking garageswhere bombs can be easily placed. Buildingmanagement would carry out surprise checks. The building management willhavetherecordofallthevisitorsinthebuilding.
