TextLanguage: ENG Publication details: 1989Description: 18p., 7 figsReport number: DE89-008310Subject: This report explains and demonstrates by example a technique for analyzing systems and operations to identify hazards and needed controls. The HIT method can be used both as a design tool and as a risk analysis tool. As a design tool, this method identifies requirements for design criteria. As part of a risk analysis effort, HIT identifies potential accident sequences, which can become part of the safety analysis documentation. Within this report the HIT method is described in detail with emphasis on application of the technique. Following the description is an example to illustrate the method.
