Based on an analysis of construction-related accidents in Kuwait city during 1996-2007, Al-Humaidi and Tan (2010) found that falls are the major type of accident (33 %) followed by being crushed or struck by a falling object (25 %), and then by use or misuse of tools (18%). Furthermore, these authors reported that almost 83 % of the victims of constmetion accidents in Kuwait sustain permanent disabilities. For United Arab Emirates (UAE), 51 % of the occupational injuries are due to falls, 15 % are due to falling objects, 11 % are due to powered machines, and 6% are due to bitms (Barss et al. 2009).

At pressures to a few bars, the vapor phase is at a relatively low density, i.e., on the average, the molecules interact with one another less strongly than do the molecules in the much denser liquid phase. It is therefore a common simplification to assume that all the nonideality in vapor-liquid systems exist in the liquid phase and that the vapor phase can be treated as an ideal gas. This leads to the simple result that the fugacity of component i is given by its partial pressure, i.e. the product of y, the mole fraction of i in the vapor, and P, the total pressure. A somewhat less restrictive simplification is the Lewis fugacity rule which sets the fugacity of i in the vapor mixture proportional to its mole fraction in the vapor phase the constant of proportionality is the fugacity of pure i vapor at the temperature and pressure of the mixture. These simplifications are attractive because they make the calculation of vapor-liquid equilibria much easier the K factors = i i ... 

If the vapor mixture contains only ideal gases, the integrals in Equations (3) and (6) are zero, z is unity for all compositions, and ()i equals 1 for each component i. At low pressures, typically less than 1 bar, it is frequently a good assumption to set ( ) = 1, but even at moderately low pressures, say in the vicinity of 1 to 10 bars, (f) is often significantly different from unity, especially if i is a polar component.
