Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (FMEA) is a risk assessment tool that explores, identifies,
and prioritizes the potential failure modes in a system, process, service or design.
The failure modes prioritizing technique used by FMEA has been criticized to have many
deficiencies, and various risk priority models have been proposed in the literature to enhance the
performance of FMEA.
The Dams are large and complex projects, and are generally characterized by the
enormous cost of implementation in some cases, and the length of the implementation
period, are rarely carried out a dam in Syria within the estimated plan which develo
ped his
of the cost and time, this is due to the risks that intercepted projects during the
implementation phase and directly influenced the basic project objectives ( cost and time
and quality).
This research experiences to the reality of the implementation of the late dams,
through undertake a study the risks suffered by the implementation of sector and
influenced the basic objectives of the project (cost - time - quality), through a field survey
study includes more than thirty-five dams in Syria.
For this purpose have been used survey was distributed to a slice of experts and
technicians in the form of dams, has enabled to obtain a list of the risks faced by the
implementation of dams in addition to the assessment, In an attempt to develop a scientific
methodology to analyze and manage the risks of dam projects by assessing the probability
of their occurrence and their impact on the objectives of the project in the event of
occurrence, with introduce a new standard for evaluating a detection / control, As per the
approach to FMEA /Failure Mode and Effect Analysis/ and incorporate logic fuzzy, and
arrange those risks according the Risk Criticality Number (RCN) for each risk early in
order be sensitive to them than we can handled properly with proposing appropriate
response strategies.
