Abstract

This paper presents an analysis of fire hazard during repair work of refrigerated hold with a view of specificity of its equipment and construction, as well as the algorithm of the system of analysis and evaluation of safety measures and their effectiveness. The assessment of effectiveness was based on the applied fire safety measures. Selected actions and technical measures for fire safety must make it possible to prevent fire ignition in hardly accessible spaces behind the boarding of hold walls and in air cooling chambers as unnoticed fire may very fast propagate to the next holds and ship compartments due to flue drafts.
