Our Professional Risk
Assessment Process
DEHN's risk assessment provides the information necessary to create a complete protection concept tailored to your business. Our service includes the analysis of four different risk categories:
RISK R1
Loss of human life
RISK R2
Loss of service to the public
RISK R3
Loss of cultural heritage
RISK R4
Loss of economic value
Each assessment is different, with our experts combining one or more risks for a process relevant to your specific structures and systems' characteristics and purposes. Our assessment questionnaires can be performed remotely or on-site and encompass a range of topics, including:
Definition of structure/system to be considered and its properties
Definition of all types of loss for the structure/systems to be considered and the related risks of damage: R1, R2, R3, and R4
- Assessment of the risk of damage for each selected type of loss
Assessment of the protection requirement by comparing the selected risks of damage (R1, R2, and R3) for a structure with the tolerable risk RT.
- If R4 is also selected, we'll assess the economic efficiency of the protection by comparing the costs of a total loss with and withour protection measures
At the end of our assessment process, our team will hand over all documents electronically in a PDF format or open, signed formats for a seamless knowledge transfer, These reports will serve ad the basis for an efficient and state-of-the-art lighting protection concept engineered by DEHN Inc.
