Speaker: Russell Lee, Forensic Consulting Engineer

This seminar is to address the subject of large industrial failures and risk mitigation factors. Russell will use a number of case studies and share his experiences on investigations to determine the origin and cause of failures, fires, and accidents in diverse industrial environments. Case studies will include the Moomba explosion and fire of 2003, a number of transformer failures, the Loy Yang A generator failure, a wind generator fire and switchboard explosions and fires. Russell has presented at a number of conferences and seminars and the subject matter has been of great interest to investigators, risk and maintenance engineers, tradespeople and the general public.
