화학물질 운송과정에서 교통사고로 인한 화학물질 누출사고가 발생할 경우에 대한 정량적 위험성평가를 실시하였고, 이를 기준으로 화학물질 운송경로의 적절성을 평가하였다. 이를 위해 사업장 내부에 설치되어 있는 화학물질 취급설비에서 화학물질 누출사고가 발생할 경우 적용하는 정량적 위험성평가방법을 제시하였고, 이를 화학물질 운송과정에 적용하였다. 운송 차량의 교통사고 건수를 분석하여 화학물질 운송시 화학물질 누출사고가 발생할 확률을 예측하였고, 차량을 이용하여 액화염소용기를 운송할 경우 발생할 수 있는 염소가스 누출사고에 대한 정량적 위험성평가에 적용하였다. 그 결과 위험도를 바탕으로 액화염소용기를 운송하는 차량의 가장 적절한 운행경로를 제시하였다.

Mobile scaffold is used as a work platform in construction sites. According to industrial accident data, 10 fatalities occur annually on average due to falling from mobile scaffold in construction sites. To prevent such fatal accidents, safety standards must be improved by analyzing the causes of fatal accidents related to mobile scaffold. Accordingly, we analyzed domestic and international safety standards for mobile scaffold and analyzed the fatalities (117 persons) caused by mobile scaffold accidents in domestic construction sites during 2011-2020 and found that fall, overturn, and collapse accounted for 88% (103 persons), 10.3% (12 persons), and 1.7% (2 persons) of fatalities, respectively. The main causes of fatal accidents were found to be non-installation or insufficient installation of safety rails and outriggers and incorrect sequence of work. Based on the analysis results, we proposed strategies for improving the safety standards, such as the use of advanced guard rails and wheel-attached outriggers, to enhance the safety and field applicability of the mobile scaffold. Technology development and improvements in the safety standards for the use of mobile scaffold will aid in the prevention of fatal accidents caused by mobile scaffold.

This paper applies the Analytic Hierarchy Process(AHP) to analyzing the causes and countermeasures of the accidents by the dangerous machines. The AHP is the decision supporting tool considering several objectives and criteria, and synthesizing a number of decision makers' opinions to find the best alternative. It has the merit to be able to consider not only quantitative factors but also qualitative factors. Because this paper focuses the thoughts of the workers about the dangerous factors in working space including machines, work environment and tools, the AHP is the most suitable method for this study. This study using the AHP can be used as useful tool analyzing the important causes of the accidents by the dangerous machines and deciding the urgent countermeasures.

건설업은 전체 산업 중에서 가장 많은 재해자를 발생시키는 산업 분야이다. 각 재해에서 발견되는 반복되는 요인들로 인해 재해가 발생하기 때문에 기존의 기술통계 분석 및 통계적 검정으로 업무상 재해 유형을 분석하는 데 한계가 있다. 이에 본 연구는 건설현장에서 발생하는 재해 유형 중 낙하물에 기인한 안전사고에 대하여 사망과 부상 사고로 구분하여 사고 원인들을 도출한다. 또한, 기계학습 기법 중 연관 규칙 분석 방법을 통하여 낙하물에 기인한 안전사고의 규칙을 발견하고, 낙하물의 요인들을 군집하여 중점 재해요인을 도출한다. 본 연구에서 제안한 낙하물에 기인한 사망과 부상 사고에 대한 규칙을 감안하여 낙하물에 기인한 안전사고에 대한 대처방안을 모색하면 보다 정확한 사고예방이 가능할 것으로 판단된다.

In this study, the methods to identify the causes of electrical fires are suggested. Among several causes of electrocal fires, it is focused upon a short-circuit and an over-current accidents, which take the highest ratio compare with any other causes. To propose the exact method of identification, electric wires(HIV, IV), fuses and plug-receptacls are tested under the conditions of electrical accidents and external fires, respectively. By analyzing the microphotographs, the differences between the results from electrical fires and the others are found out.

Objective: This study aims to analyze the characteristics of occupational accidents and injuries of telecommunications line and cable workers by type of workplace and operational process of cabling service and to provide baseline data in establishing the preventive policies for occupational accidents and injuries. Background: In order to set up the preventive policies for occupational injuries and illness systematically, the accident analysis by industry should be preceded. To establish more effective policies, it should be done by occupation for persons who work in various kinds of occupation rather than by industry for persons who do in the same occupation. Method: In this study, the 176 occupational accidents and injuries were classified by type of workplace - indoor (inside building) and outdoor (at the top of utility pole, in a manhole, or in the fields) - and also done by operational process involved at the time of the accident. By analyzing the characteristics of occupational injuries and illness by type of workplace and operational process, respectively, this study can be helpful in establishing the preventative policies for occupational accidents and injuries. Results: The characteristics of occupational accidents and injuries by type of workplace showed that there were differences in terms of accident rate between indoor and outdoor on age of the injured, while not on employment-size and work experience of the injured. In addition, the characteristics on accident type, agency of accident, parts of body affected, and operational process between indoor and outdoor workplaces were statistically different each other. Conclusion and Application: The findings of occupational accidents' characteristics can be applied to the establishment of systematic preventative policies for occupational accidents of telecommunications line/equipment workers.

Purpose - This thesis is to develop a management plan and checklist by analyzing the prevention of accidents in advance by presenting the management plan for the major causes of railway accidents. Research design, data and methodology - In recent 5 years, we have analyzed the cases of railway accident, presented the management plan for the accident, and made a practical safety checklist focusing on the main measures according to the management plan. Results - The analysis of the cases of near-railway accidents suggests more concrete and practical safety management measures because the similar accidents are continuously occurring due to formal safety management. Conclusions - It is more valuable to apply to the adjacent construction of the railway line by creating a detailed checklist based on cases rather than the existing checklist. This study is written only as a human factor. For future real - time safety management, it is necessary to study more precisely cause analysis and safety equipment as a big data - based safety control system for more systematic safety management.

PURPOSES : The intents of the study are to identify the accident factors and to demonstrate the potentials of tobit model as a tool to study the number of accidents on arterial roads segments. METHODS : This paper uses a tobit regression as a methodology to analyze the factors affecting the number of accidents. In pursuing the above goal, this study gives particular attentions to analyzing the data of 2,446 accidents (1,610 in major arterial roads and 836 in minor arterial roads) occurred on arterial roads in 2007 to 2010. RESULTS : First, 3 accident models which were classified by total arterial roads, major arterial roads and minor arterial roads, and were all statistically significant were developed. Second, the exclusive right-turn lane as common variable, and the number of accident, traffic volume, number of lanes, link length, rate of median, number of entrances, number of pedestrian crossings, number of curves, number of bus stops and exclusive left-turn as specific variables of the models were selected. Finally, the paired sample t-test could not be rejected the null hypotheses of three types of models. CONCLUSIONS : Using data from vehicle accidents on arterial roads, the estimation results show that many factors related to roadway geometrics and traffic characteristics significantly affect to the number of accidents.

LPG-related accidents, which account for half of all gas accidents in Korea, have not shown any sign of decrease over the past decade, partially owing to the lack of effective safety improvement measures. The purpose of this study was to identify the effectiveness of improvement measures by analyzing the traits of accidents in terms of human factors, and to seek more effective accident prevention strategies. In this study, 108 accident cases were collected and analyzed in the aspect of accident characteristics such as violation type, human factors, and so on. The results showed that the work procedures of suppliers and engineers related to LPG accidents seemed to be similar in outward appearance; however, specific accident causes and unsafe behaviors were different. Particularly, type and target of violations were different, which could be visually confirmed by the Principal Component Analysis (PCA) and the Quantification Techniques (QT). Furthermore, for engineers, insufficient supervision was a major influencing factor. In conclusion, because the accident characteristics of suppliers and engineers are different, differentiated accident prevention strategies should be implemented, which was discussed in this study.
