Abstract:

From experience with structural failures, one can see that human error, in design and execution, is the major cause for these incidents. However, human error is not covered by any approach to structural reliability. Therefore, a system for quality and risk management is required that accounts for human error. Such systems are mostly organized on a national level and exhibit significant differences.

This paper compares corresponding international approaches on how to handle human error and evaluates them.

A proposal for an adequate quality and risk management system covering human error will be presented. The proposal will be composed of the best parts of several available systems to provide an empirically verified, widely accepted approach.
