A general introduction to fault tree analysis is given. Basic concepts of fault tree representation are introduced and relations to switching theory emphasized. The probabilistic evaluation of coherent systems is discussed. This is an application of alternating renewal processes. It is possible to use for evaluation minimal cuts, expansion, or modular decomposition. For decomposition, interesting relations to switching theory exist.
