Root Cause Failure Analysis ... the role of NDT
The term Root Cause Failure Analysis (RCFA) has been associated with equipment reliability for the past twenty years or so and is generally understood to mean find and fix the causes of equipment failure. Many companies have no structured failure analysis. Instead, they operate on the breakdown maintenance system: If something breaks, they fix it, but they don’t ask why it failed. When the problem happens a few more times, they may look for a root cause and fix it differently. These organizations often have measuring systems that record how long it took to repair a failure. Maintenance personnel get very good at repairing the equipment, but the failures keep happening. Organizations that are striving to learn and improve often have some formal root cause analysis program but the effectiveness is often limited and repeat failures are not uncommon. Unfortunately, in most businesses today, the majority of failures will be repeated and they will be repeated simply because the employees have never learned effective problem solving skills.
This talk will present a simple evidence based problem solving methodology on how one can effectively determine Root Cause(s) that lead to the occurrence of an incident. The role of Non- Destructive Testing techniques in successful application of this methodology will be highlighted through some case studies.

Topic : GUIDED WAVE INSPECTION - THE FUTURE
Speaker : Mr. Ian Daniel, Plant Integrity Ltd ( A division of TWI, UK)
Date: 17th September 2010, Time 6.30 -9.30 pm ( AGM, Technical Talk + Dinner)
Location: Singapore Poly Graduate Guilds (SPGG), Grand Balroom – 1010, Dover Road Singapore -139658, Gate 4 of Singapore Poly
Car Park : Available
Guided wave Inspection - The Future
Plant Integrity Limited has developed a permanently installed tool-head called Teletest Perm-A-MountTM. This device consists of a transducer array attached directly to the pipe surface providing all the benefits of Teletest Focus Guided Wave Inspection without the problems with Access. Perm-A-Mount is a low-cost, long-life tool installation intended for regular monitoring of piping systems in environmentally hostile, safety critical or difficult to access areas.
Typical Applications for this technique include:
- Road or River Crossings
- Elevated lines
- Insulated lines
- Off shore risers
- Buried lines
- Sub sea lines
The installation process has been developed in conjunction with TWI Ltd’s surfacing and corrosion departments and tested to ensure that the tool will not be a future source of corrosion in piping systems.
The tool head is connected to existing Teletest Focus Units via an external communication box that can be located up to 25metres from the tool head. The data collection is very simple to execute and can be either be analysed on site by a CSWIP trained operator or remotely.
- Automated 3 mouse-buttons click data collection. Provides the flexibility for on-site analysis or remote analysis by CSWIP Trained operators
- Low Cost
- Multimode Wave Form: Transducer arrays are optimised for pipe diameter, wall thickness & contents, maximising detection capabilities
- Excellent Data Stability & Repeatability: Data collected from Perm-a-mount tool heads is highly repeatable allowing very small changes in pipe condition to be detected
- Wide Temperature Range: Perm-A-Mount can operate across a wide range of temperatures from -40°C to +125°C
- Pipe Size Range: ASME Schedule 2” to 36”
- Unique Serial Numbered Tool Heads
- Improved detectability - Overlay of scans allows improved analysis and earlier detection of defects
- Low Profile: The tool is only 15mm thick & 150mm long
- Mechanically Robust Construction - Fatigue testing showed no degradation of tool after 4.1 million cycles
- Environmentally Robust - No degradation of signal after salt spray testing

29th Technical Talk – Application of NDT in Building Diagnostics – Sharing of Building Inspection experience in Hong Kong
Date: 12th March 2010 – February, Time 7.00 -9.00pm
Location: SPGG, 1010 Dover Road, Singapore -139658
Synopsis
Recently a 50 years old building collapsed in an urban area of Hong Kong. Four occupants were killed and a number of them injured. This incident raised an alert of the city over the Hong Kong urban area. The government will enact a law for Mandatory Building Inspection Scheme (MBIS) for old buildings of 30 years old and the implementation of it will be end of the year. A registry of Registered Inspector (RI) will be kept by HK Building Authority to liaise with building owners and carry out the building inspection. The RI shall be RPE of HKIE. A profession named as Building Diagnosticians will emerge to actually conduct the inspection. HKAS will offer accreditation of building diagnostic testing. HKCI will publish a Code of Practice for Condition Assessment for Old Buildings. Ir. Cheung will talk about this implementation of MBIS from the perspectives of HKIE, HKAS and HKCI.
Networking & Dinner – 8.15 – 9.00pm
