Abstract

Human stampedes were a major hazard that could occur during mass gatherings, but they have received limited attention in korea. However, after the 10.29 Itaewon disaster, this atmosphere has turned around. The cause of such an accident and how to prevent it should be considered. The main aim of this study is to identify the reason why did the accident happen at that time, the root cause, and the triggering cause with Delphi-AHP survey method. In addition, various preventive measures were investigated by experts to prevent accidents similar to 10.29 Itaewon disaster. Problems and solutions were presented by collecting expert opinions on the causes and preventive measures of the 10.29 Itaewon disaster. However, the opinion of the experienced peoples who experienced the risk at the Itaewon was not included, so further investigation is considered necessary.
