3. Creating an Event Tree Project
Creating an Event Tree system consists of:
• Constructing the system
• Adding Branches
• Editing their parameters
• Performing analysis
To demonstrate ToolKit’s Event Tree features, we’ll create an example Event Tree project based on the following example.
In the event of a fire in the room, the fire protection is provided by a sprinkler system. A detector will either detect the rise
in temperature or it will not. If the detector succeeds, the control box will either work correctly or it will not - and so on.
There is only one branch in the tree that indicates that all the subsystems have succeeded:
Constructing the System
