Discussion on Risk Factors of Stadium: A Case Study of Taipei Dome Complex

Abstract

The Taipei Dome Complex is located in Taipei, Taiwan. It is a composite park with a multi-functional dome and incorporates a shopping mall, restaurants, cinemas, and an office building. In 2017, Taipei, Taiwan hosted the Universiade, and thousands of people protested. Smoke bombs were thrown, and the police were attacked. Due to its location in the “Circum-Pacific seismic belt” and the fact it is affected by the subtropical monsoon climate, Taiwan suffers frequent natural disasters. We aim to define the security risk factors for the Taipei Dome Complex by assessing flood simulation from the National Science and Technology Center for Disaster Reduction, earthquake simulation of the Taiwan Earthquake Loss Estimation System (TELES), and a case study of a terrorist attack. We propose 24 risk factors from five major perspectives: equipment safety, traffic accidents, human resources, security management, and disaster events.
