Hazards Analysis of Large Caliber Munitions Metal Parts Plants.

Abstract

This analysis was directed toward prevention of equipment failures. Six typical metal parts plants were surveyed to determine if hazards exist in the industrial process equipment and, if so, to determine what can be done to avoid future problems. Results show several areas within the plants which are in need of remedial action. Recommendations are made in the areas of equipment specification, installation, operation, and maintenance.
