Abstract
This paper uses fuzzy comprehensive evaluation method to assess the safety level of special equipments. An assessment model that examines quantity and quality factors was presented. The proposed model has two dimensions, the possibility and severity of accidents. The possibility of accidents was evaluated by dimensions of people, equipment, management and environment. Emergency response was concerned in judging the severity of accidents. Indicators of the assessment model were established based on expert opinions collected via questionnaires. Analytic Hierarchy Process was utilized to calculate the weights of indicators in each layer to construct the assessment model. Finally, the fuzzy comprehensive evaluation method was used to assess the safety level of a portal crane in the case company.
