Abstract: For the sake of improving principles of safety design and defining safety design rules fundamental issues concerning safety design were explored by means of a method integrating theory with practice. Based on the principles of safety science, system science and design science, the safety design was difined. Its main features were analyzed from theoretical perspectives. A systematic research on the basic issues and process of safety design was conducted by using literature analysis and inductive method. Three guidelines were generalized, which contain six basic ideas, six basic concepts, and seven basic principles. General constructional steps of safety design with the safety task-actual operation-safety effect as mainline were proposed. A methodology-technology structure diagram was plotted. The design patterns were classified according to the specific standard. The research results make the direction and category of the safety design more definite.

Key words: safety science, safety design, major characteristic, design criteria, fundamental issues
