The management of explosion risk at explosives warehouses allows ensuring the necessary premises for the development, in objective and specific conditions, of the necessary documents for these types of technical infrastructures, right from their design phase and the quantification of the degree of impact on the sites analyzed as well as the areas that are located in their vicinity. In the case of the quantitative evaluation of the explosion risk generated following the detonation of explosive materials, the estimation of the manifestation of hazards identified through the associated risk factors should be carried out based on scientific calculation algorithms and established grapho-analytical models. The paper summarizes part of the results obtained regarding the development of a methodological approach and specific application tools that allow the assessment of the major accident risks generated by explosive materials, the identification, formalization and structuring of the applicable safety requirements to reduce or eliminate the risks in explosive material storage sites.
