2003 Risk-Based Methods for Equipment Life Management: An Application Handbook

Published: 2003
Product Type: Print-Book
No. of pages: 300

 

This ASME Handbook includes a CD-ROM containing spreadsheet templates and other information that can be used to develop an inspection program for pressure vessels, piping, and other equipment in a power plant or other industrial facility. Both the handbook and templates will help users develop an inspection program by:

  •  Framing an inquiry
  •  Collecting and formatting the relevant data
  •  Analyzing the data
  •  Obtaining failure probability versus time and other useful information
  •  Performing system analysis when necessary
  •  Mathematically determining the correct sequence and timing for a series of major maintenance activities

This CD also includes an alternative flow chart that links to abbreviated versions of the step-by-step procedures.

The handbook further identifies known areas where safety exposures exist and suggests ways in which these exposures may be addressed.

Prepared by the ASME Research Committee on Risk Technology.
