Risk, Acceptable 05
Risk, Acceptable 05 :
The level of loss a society or community considers acceptable given existing social, economic, political, cultural, technical and environmental conditions. In engineering terms, acceptable risk is also used to assess structural and non-structural measures undertaken to reduce possible damage at a level which does not harm people and property, according to codes or accepted practice based, among other issues, on a known probability of hazard. (UN/ISDR, 2004)
