Summary
This paper summarises parts of a study carried out by Working Group WG32 of CIB into
presently applied methods of risk management related to civil engineering and building structures.
plete study is reported in CIB Publication 259. The report gives an overview of advanced
and simplified risk analysis techniques and criteria for risk acceptance. Then attention is given to
the aspects munication with the public and the authorities. Finally a number of practical
cases are discussed. The cases are used to evaluate the theoretical issues of the first chapters. This
conference paper concentrates primarily on the acceptance munication aspects.
Keywords: Risk management, risk analysis, risk acceptance, munication
1. Introduction
To an engineer, the “risk” associated with a hazard is bination of the probability that that
hazard will occur and the consequences of that hazard. Consequences to be considered include
injury or loss of life, reconstruction costs, loss of economic activity
