This presentation includes a brief history of fault tree analysis, its relationship to systems safety analysis, and a description of how to do a fault tree analysis both on a simple and complex level. It will demonstrate how this analytical technique can give new insight into safety problems and thereby improve proposed answers or countermeasures. The application of this approach to management problems is also discussed.
