    Abstract - (Show below) - (Hide below)

    Gives information on: - the underlying concepts of risk, the relationship of risk to safety integrity, - the determination of tolerable risk, - a number of different methods that enable the safety integrity levels for the safety instrumented functions to be determined, - The impact of multiple safety systems on calculations determining the ability to achieve the desired risk reduction.
