Risk Assessment Handbook
Author:
Publisher:
ISBN: 9781423523444
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 100
Book Description
This handbook, Risk Assessment Handbook Volume I - Human Health Evaluation, provides technical guidance to the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) risk assessors and risk assessment support personnel for planning, evaluating, and conducting Human Health Risk Assessments (HHRAs) in a phased hazardous, toxic, and radioactive waste (HTRW) response action. The handbook, a compendium to the Risk Assessment Handbook: Volume II - Environmental Evaluation (Engineer Manual (EM) 200-1-4), encourages the use of "good science" within the framework of existing U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) risk assessment guidelines. Reference and overview resources: * Required and Related References (Appendix A) * Abbreviations and Acronyms (Appendix B) Risk characterization is a similar process for both human health and Ecological Risk Assessments (ERAs). The fundamental paradigm for human health risk characterization has four phases: (1) hazard identification, (2) dose-response assessment, (3) exposure assessment, and (4) risk characterization. Similarly, the fundamental framework for ecological risk characterization includes four phases: (1) problem formulation, (2) ecological effects characterization, (3) exposure characterization, and (4) risk characterization. This handbook encourages the concurrent assessment of human and ecological risks so that data collection activities are coordinated and risk managers are provided risk characterization results in a timely manner. Risk characterization results for human and ecological receptors should be reasonable and communicated to the risk managers in a clear and unbiased manner to facilitate the making of balanced and informed risk management decisions.

The Indoor Environment Handbook
Author: Philomena Bluyssen
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1136544828
Category : Architecture
Languages : en
Pages : 310
Book Description
Winner of the Choice Outstanding Academic Titles of 2010 award. Ensuring that buildings are healthy and comfortable for their occupants is a primary concern of all architects and building engineers. This highly practical handbook will help make that process more efficient and effective. It begins with a guide to how the human body and senses react to different indoor environmental conditions, together with basic information on the parameters of the indoor environment and problems that can occur. It then moves on to give a background to the development of the study and control of the indoor environment, examining the main considerations (including thermal, lighting, indoor air and sound-related aspects) for a healthy and comfortable indoor environment and discussing the drivers for change in the field. The final section presents a new approach towards health and comfort in the indoor environment, where meeting the wishes and demands of the occupants with a holistic strategy becomes the over-riding priority. The book is filled with useful facts, figures and analysis, and practical methods that designers who are keen to assess and improve the user experience of their buildings will find invaluable.
