Analyzing Hoan Bridge Failure Through Quality and Risk Management

This case study examines the Hoan Bridge failure through the lens of quality and risk management, focusing on the Quality Management System's models: Quality Planning, Quality Assurance, and Quality Control. It highlights the importance of management commitment, employee involvement, customer-defined quality, and fact-based decisions. The risk management strategies that should have been followed during construction, including planning, team assembly, risk identification, rationalization, ranking, response, mitigation, and control, are analyzed. The risk analysis identifies factors such as joint details, retrofit holes, truck loading, and temperature effects leading to fatigue cracking. A risk assessment matrix evaluates economic development impacts and risks to MMSD, emphasizing probability, consequences, and mitigation strategies. The document concludes by underscoring the need for alternative solutions to high repair costs and environmental risks. Desklib provides access to similar solved assignments for students.
