PTIL/PSA

The main elements in the process of

initiating and conducting an assessment
of a structure (ISO 19902)
a) assemble data on the structure, its history and exposure level;
b) determine if any assessment initiators are triggered;
c) determine acceptance criteria;
d) assess the condition of the structure;
e) assess the actions,
f) screen the structure in comparison with similar structures,;
g) perform a resistance assessment, using:
design level analysis;
ultimate strength level analysis;
h) prevention and mitigation

PTIL/PSA

Tasks that needs emphasis in life

extension
Predict future degradation including wide spread
degradation and the consequences from this
degradation.
Plan inspections and maintenance taking that
degradation into account
Evaluate if components can be inspected
Evaluate criticality of components
