초록

Since Korea currently have a weak technological basis for safety evaluation and traceability of the accident causes, there are demands for a definition and procedure development of safety regulation system, organization of safety case system, establishment of detailed safety standard, evaluation technology development for safety, construction of test assessment basis, technology development for a prevention of critical accidents and construction of safety information management system, etc, then the developed technologies need to be incorporated into the overall system, in order to prepare an efficient enforcement basis of the railway law already taken effect. In this paper, a whole development process of a railway safety assessment program in South Korea is introduced. A railway safety assessment program is a web-based software program to examine safety documents automatically and to support railway safety assessor by providing checklists. The railway safety documents assessed in this program are safety management system (SMS) documents and engineering safety management (ESM) documents. The railway safety documents are examined automatically by software engines and results of the examination are provided to assessors. The program also provides the assessors with document checklists. The railway safety assessment program will become a beneficial web-based program for examining and investigating railway safety documents in South Korea.
