Occupied Building Risk Assessment (OBRA)
Occupied Building Risk Assessment (OBRA) focuses on hazards that may threaten the safety of personnel inside buildings on hazardous facilities. By quantifying risks from explosions, fires, and toxic releases, it supports decision-making around building design, occupancy levels, and emergency response strategies.
