摘要
This paper describes the work carried out by the Health and Safety Executive in investigating the disaster at the Hillsborough Stadium on 15 April 1989. The individual aspects investigated include examination and testing of crush barriers, collapse load calculations, development of a model to predict crowd pressures and estimation of the number of spectators entering the West Terrace of the ground.
