16、and mainte-nance of pressure equipment after it has been placed in service. At the recommendation of thisTask Group, the Board on Pressure Technology Codes and Standards (BPTCS) formed the PostConstruction Committee (PCC) in 1995. The scope of this committee was to develop and maintainstandards addr
17、essing common issues and technologies related to post-construction activities, andto work with other consensus committees in the development of separate, product-specific codesand standards addressing issues encountered after initial construction for equipment and pipingcovered by Pressure Technolog
18、y Codes and Standards. The BPTCS covers non-nuclear boilers,pressure vessels (including heat exchangers), piping and piping components, pipelines, andstorage tanks.The PCC selects standards to be developed based on identified needs and the availability ofvolunteers. The PCC formed the Subcommittee o
19、n Inspection Planning and the Subcommitteeon Flaw Evaluations in 1995. In 1998, a Task Group under the PCC began preparation of Guidelinesfor Pressure Boundary Bolted Flange Joint Assembly, and in 1999 the Subcommittee on Repairand Testing was formed. Other topics are under consideration and may pos
20、sibly be developedinto future guideline documents. The subcommittees were charged with preparing standardsdealing with several aspects of the inservice inspection and maintenance of pressure equipmentand piping.This Standard provides guidance on the preparation and implementation of a risk-based ins
21、pec-tion plan. Flaws that are identified during inspection plan implementation are then evaluated,when appropriate, using the procedures provided in the API 579-1/ASME FFS-1, Fitness forService. If it is determined that repairs are required, guidance on repair procedures is providedin ASME PCC-2, Re
22、pair of Pressure Equipment and Piping.This Standard is based on API 580, Risk-Based Inspection. By agreement with the AmericanPetroleum Institute, this Standard is closely aligned with the RBI process in API 580, which isoriented toward the hydrocarbon and chemical process industries. In the standar
23、ds developmentprocess that led to the publication of this Standard, numerous changes, additions, and improve-ments to the text of API 580 were made, many of which are intended to generalize the RBI processto enhance applicability to a broader spectrum of industries.This Standard provides recognized
24、and generally accepted good practices that may be usedin conjunction with Post-Construction Codes, such as API 510, API 570, and NB-23.ASME PCC-32007 was approved as an American National Standard on October 4, 2007.ivASME COMMITTEE ONPRESSURE TECHNOLOGY POST CONSTRUCTION(The following is the roster

31、developed for applications involving fixed pressure-containing equipment and components. This Standardis not intended to be used for nuclear power plant com-ponents; see ASME BPV, Section XI, Rules for InserviceInspection of Nuclear Power Plant Components. It pro-vides guidance to owners, operators,
32、 and designers ofpressure-containing equipment for developing andimplementing an inspection program. These guidelinesinclude means for assessing an inspection program andits plan. The approach emphasizes safe and reliableoperation through cost-effective inspection. A spectrumof complementary risk an
33、alysis approaches (qualitativethrough fully-quantitative) should be considered as partof the inspection planning process.1.2 IntroductionThis Standard provides information on using riskanalysis to develop and plan an effective inspectionstrategy. Inspection planning is a systematic process thatbegin
34、s with identification of facilities or equipment andculminates in an inspection plan. Both the probability1of failure and the consequence of failure should be evalu-ated by considering all credible damage mechanismsthat could be expected to affect the facilities or equip-ment. In addition, failure s
35、cenarios based on each credi-ble damage mechanism should be developed andconsidered.The output of the inspection planning process con-ducted according to these guidelines should be aninspection plan for each equipment item analyzed thatincludes(a) inspection methods that should be used(b) extent of
36、inspection (percent of total area to beexamined or specific locations)(c) inspection interval (timing)(d) other risk mitigation activities(e) the residual level of risk after inspection and othermitigation actions have been implemented1Likelihood is sometimes used as a synonym for probability; how-e
37、ver, probability is used throughout this Standard for consistency.11.3 PurposeThis Standard presents the concepts and principlesused to develop and implement a risk-based inspection(RBI) program.

40、y and JurisdictionalRequirementsThis Standard does not replace or supersede laws,regulations, or jurisdictional requirements.2 BASIC CONCEPTS2.1 RiskEveryone lives with risk and, knowingly or unknow-ingly, people are constantly making decisions based onrisk. Simple decisions such as whether to drive
41、 to workor walk across a busy street involve risk. Bigger decisionssuch as buying a house, investing money, and gettingmarried all imply an acceptance of risk. Life is not risk-free and even the most cautious, risk-averse individualsinherently take risks.For example, when driving a car, an individua
42、l acceptsthe possibility that he or she could be killed or seriouslyinjured. The risk is accepted because the probability ofbeing killed or seriously injured is low while the benefitrealized (either real or perceived) justifies the risk taken.ASME PCC-32007Fig. 2.1 Risk PlotIso-risk lineProbability
43、of FailureConsequence of Failure31279106845Influencing the decision is the type of car, the safetyfeatures installed, traffic volume and speed, and otherfactors such as the availability, risks, and affordabilityof alternatives (e.g., mass transit).Risk is the combination of the probability of someev
44、ent occurring during a time period of interest and theconsequences (generally negative) associated with thatevent. Mathematically, risk should be expressed asrisk p probability H11547 consequenceUnderstanding the two-dimensional aspect of riskallows new insight into the use of risk analysis forinspe
45、ction prioritization and planning. Figure 2.1 dis-plays the risk associated with the operation of a numberof equipment items. Both the probability and conse-quence of failure have been determined for ten equip-ment items, and the results have been plotted. The pointsrepresent the risk associated wit
46、h each equipment item.An “iso-risk” line, representing a constant risk level, isalso shown on Fig. 2.1. A user-defined acceptable risklevel could be plotted as an iso-risk line. In this way theacceptable risk line would separate the unacceptablefrom the acceptable risk items (i.e., if the iso-risk l
47、ine onthe plot represents the acceptable risk, then equipmentitems 1, 2, and 3 would pose an unacceptable risk thatrequires further attention). Often a risk plot is drawnusing log-log scales for a better understanding of therelative risks of the items assessed.Risk levels or values may be assigned t
48、o each equip-ment item. This may be done graphically by drawing aseries of iso-risk lines and identifying the equipmentitems that fall into each band or it may be done numeri-cally. Either way, a list that is ordered by risk is a2risk-based ranking of the equipment items. Using sucha list, or plot,
49、an inspection plan may be developed thatfocuses attention on the items of highest risk.2.2 Overview of Risk AnalysisThe complexity of a risk analysis is a function of thenumber of factors that can affect the risk and there is acontinuous spectrum of methods available to assess risk.The methods range from a strictly relative ranking torigorous calculation. The methods generally represent arange of precision for the resulting risk analysis (seepara. 3.3.6).Any particular analysis may not yield usable resultsdue to a lack of data, low-quality data, or the use of anapproach that does not ade
