This book was released on 2004 with total page 21 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Maintaining the infrastructure of roads, highways, and bridges is paramount to ensuring that these assets will remain safe and reliable in the future. If maintenance costs remain the same or continue to escalate, and additional funding is not made available, the highway agency may need to reduce new construction or cut back on maintenance, or both. There is a close relationship between the cost of optimally scheduled preventive maintenance versus the cost of emergency maintenance or replacement. The study develops a systemic risk-based asset management methodology to manage the maintenance of highway infrastructure systems. The decisionmaking methodology is used to harmonize and coordinate the actions of the different units and levels in a hierarchical organization. The systemic methodology enables the filtering and assessment of assets for maintenance while addressing the potential for extreme events. The methodology balances the costs, benefits, and risks of maintenance and inspection policies as applied to various types of assets. Three objective functions are used in evaluating options and strategies: minimizing short-term cost, minimizing long-term cost, and maximizing the remaining service life of highway assets. A constraint function harmonizes the remaining service life across assets to eliminate infeasible options. The methodology is generally applicable to the asset management of large-scale dynamic systems that exhibit similar characteristics as highway systems.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Reliability Centered Maintenance – Reengineered: Practical Optimization of the RCM Process with RCM-R® provides an optimized approach to a well-established and highly successful method used for determining failure management policies for physical assets. It makes the original method that was developed to enhance flight safety far more useful in a broad range of industries where asset criticality ranges from high to low. RCM-R® is focused on the science of failures and what must be done to enable long-term sustainably reliable operations. If used correctly, RCM-R® is the first step in delivering fewer breakdowns, more productive capacity, lower costs, safer operations and improved environmental performance. Maintenance has a huge impact on most businesses whether its presence is felt or not. RCM-R® ensures that the right work is done to guarantee there are as few nasty surprises as possible that can harm the business in any way. RCM-R® was developed to leverage on RCM’s original success at delivering that effectiveness while addressing the concerns of the industrial market. RCM-R® addresses the RCM method and shortfalls in its application -- It modifies the method to consider asset and even failure mode criticality so that rigor is applied only where it is truly needed. It removes (within reason) the sources of concern about RCM being overly rigorous and too labor intensive without compromising on its ability to deliver a tailored failure management program for physical assets sensitive to their operational context and application. RCM-R® also provides its practitioners with standard based guidance for determining meaningful failure modes and causes facilitating their analysis for optimum outcome. Includes extensive review of the well proven RCM method and what is needed to make it successful in the industrial environment Links important elements of the RCM method with relevant International Standards for risk management and failure management Enhances RCM with increased emphasis on statistical analysis, bringing it squarely into the realm of Evidence Based Asset Management Includes extensive, experience based advice on implementing and sustaining RCM based failure management programs

This book was released on 2017-06-27 with total page 24 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Research Paper (undergraduate) from the year 2017 in the subject Engineering - Metal Engineering, Metal Processing, Metal Structure, Cranfield University (Cranfield University), course: OOTSE, language: English, abstract: This paper is going to focus on a maintenance method that provides reliability to a functional system and in a cost-effective manner, known as Reliability centered maintenance technique or RCM. RCM is simply referred to as the idea of considering the lasting reliability of a system. It includes coming up with ideas and ways of maintaining the system, and to make sure it is reliable throughout its expected life period. It encompasses adding weight to the choice of systems which is recognised to be dependable and sustainable and for which logistic sustenance is most gladly delivered. In practice this often means choosing systems that are readily accessible off-the-shelf and which are since commonly used. It also includes examining for reliability and acceptable installation at the time of acquiring the asset. Key issues are system harmony, reliability and maintainability, assessment, and acceptance testing.

Download or read book Risk Based Maintenance for Electricity Network Organizations written by Ravish Preshant Yashraj Mehairjan and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-12-24 with total page 169 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book focuses on the introduction of new and modern maintenance management frameworks of assets in the electricity & gas network sector and more specifically, on electricity networks for distribution. The author describes methodologies for developing and implementing maintenance management maturity models, using case studies to show how these have been applied. These maturity models are discussed as part of an overarching, multi-disciplinary organizational maintenance management professionalization framework. This book adds a new dimension to the well-known Reliability Centered Maintenance (RCM) method, by incorporating failure modes via multiple scenarios into business values, by means of statistical risk calculation methods. The author demonstrates a method called Utility Risk Linked RCM, which uses a statistical tool to develop failure models which can be used to predict future failure behavior of assets in relation to corporate business values. This new method is a practical, structured and comprehensive framework for assessing risk based maintenance policies. The book also proposes a condition monitoring framework that can be used as a guide to assist asset managers in identifying the relationship between failure modes, ageing processes to select amongst condition monitoring regimes.

Download or read book Reliability Centered Maintenance Management and Engineering Methods written by R.T. Anderson and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 359 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book the authors provide a fresh look at basic reliability and maintainability engineering techniques and management tools for ap plication to the system maintenance planning and implementation process. The essential life-cycle reliability centered maintenance (ReM) activities are focused on maintenance planning and the prevention of failure. The premise is that more efficient, and therefore effective, life-cycle main tenance programs can be established using a well disciplined decision logic analysis process that addresses individual part failure modes, their consequences, and the actual preventive maintenance tasks. This premise and the techniques and tools described emphasize preventive, not corrective, maintenance. The authors also describe the techniques and tools fundamental to maintenance engineering. They provide an understanding of the inter relationships of the elements of a complete ReM program (which are applicable to any complex system or component and are not limited only to the aircraft industry). They describe special methodologies for improving the maintenance process. These include an on-condition maintenance (OeM) methodology to identify defects and potential deterioration which can determine what is needed as a maintenance action in order to prevent failure during use.

Download or read book Risk and Reliability of Infrastructure Asset Management Workshop written by and published by . This book was released on 2006 with total page 90 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A workshop was held August 15-18 in Alexandria, Virginia to begin the dialog on the methodologies available and the status of how the US Army Corps of Engineers assesses its Civil Works infrastructure and applies risk and reliability in the management of that infrastructure. The workshop was organized by the US Army Engineer Research and Development Center (ERDC) in collaboration with Headquarters, USACE and in support of the initiatives on asset management. Over 75 people attended representing 6 of 8 Corps divisions, many districts, HQ, ERDC, Institute for Water Resources and academia. The group included a diverse representation of planners, economists, engineers, operators, researchers and managers. The reliability of many USACE structures has been reduced and the risk of failure has been increased due to age and insufficient funds for proper maintenance and rehabilitation. A sustainable infrastructure plan based on intelligent asset management, is the fundamental principal of both the USACE Campaign Goal 3C and the Presidents initiative through Executive Order 13327, Federal Real Property Asset Management. Implementation of a robust plan is the best way to prioritize needed infrastructure improvements with limited funds. A critical component in establishment of an asset portfolio and an adaptive management strategy is the knowledge of an assets condition, its functional reliability, and the risks and consequences of poor performance or failure. A plan for Intelligent Asset Management does not exist for the entire portfolio of Corps assets at this time due to lack of assembled information, standardized assessment practices, and integrated policies for addressing information about structures condition, functional reliability and the risks and consequences of failure.

Download or read book RCM3 written by Basson Marius (author) and published by . This book was released on 1901 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The popular RCMII methodology has been around since the late '90s, but it was what professionals call a consequence-based approach. This work represents a revision to that bestselling work, by John Moubray, with more modern thinking, an emphasis on a risk-based methodology, and alignment with International ISO standards (55000 and 31000). The result is a more holistic, integrated, and rigorous way for developing asset care and risk-mitigating strategies for physical assets. Since the release of the ISO 31000 and ISO 55000 Standards, Aladon developed RCM3, a risk-based RCM methodology that places managing the risk and reliability of physical assets mainstream with other business management systems in an organization. RCM3 fully complies and exceeds the requirements of the SAEJA 1011 Standard and fully aligns with the frameworks of the ISO Standards."--Publisher's website.
