The framework for developing chemical risk assessment software applications for chemical hazards has been described in this report along with various examples for different types of hazard. The software is called Simulation of Chemical Industrial Accidents (SCIA) and was developed using Visual Basic (VB) programming language. All the programs have been written and designed within an object- orientated framework using VB. The software was developed to run under Windows platform installed on a PC and was designed to work as stand alone user- friendly software. Furthermore the software enables users to use GIS technology for better visualization. The advantages of using GIS software for chemical risk assessment applications are immense, and these applications are gradually being utilized by a wide variety of users. The mapping functionality has been developed to allow users to use SCIA as an effective graphical tool. Users will be able to define cases by locating them on maps and editing them by selecting them from the map view. Users are also able to link the hazard form with the GIS form easily.
