Short course/CPD
Applied Safety Assessment
Course date: 25 Jun 2012 - 29 Jun 2012
Course overview
Additional course dates: 3rd - 7th Dec 2012
This workshop has been developed due to popular demand to serve as an addition to the existing Safety Assessment of Aircraft Systems course. Delegates are given an opportunity to gain practical experience in carrying out a comprehensive System Safety Assessment, which is useful preparation for attendees before returning to the 'real-world'. It takes the form of a series of hands-on tutorials to describe the process and techniques involved, over 4.5 days.
Delegates will carry out safety analyses on a system installed on an aircraft using drawings, schematics and the actual aircraft as appropriate. These analyses will form an integral part of the workshop objective of producing a comprehensive System Safety Assessment. Delegates will work in groups to carry out the System Safety Assessment and will use various methods including the following safety analysis techniques.
This course is presented in association with:

Course description
Workshop content
Functional Hazard Assessment (FHA): The FHA exercise will identify the critical failure conditions of the system. Each group will classify the failure conditions in accord with the 25.1309 categories and identify the analysis techniques most appropriate to each.
Particular Risks: The Particular Risks appropriate to the system and its installation will also be considered as appropriate.
Enhanced Fault Tree Analysis (EFTA): The groups will carry out an Enhanced Fault Tree Analysis for the failure conditions identified by the FHA as being appropriate to this analytical technique.
Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (FMEA): This exercises will use existing system drawings in order to perform FMEA on the aircraft system.
Zonal Safety Analysis: Delegates will carry out a Zonal Safety Analysis on the aircraft zones in which the system is installed.
At the end of the workshop delegates will present the results of all team work.
