Course Overview

Maintenance budgets are cut on structural crack inspection in good years and paid for in bad ones. The version of this strand of engineering and maintenance work described in the manual and the version practised on the floor tend to diverge over time. The teaching approach is deliberately practical: participants build a maintenance procedure for the engineering and maintenance work capability as they go. It treats structural crack inspection as an operating discipline and equips participants to run it as one. Mature organisations treat this area of engineering and maintenance work as a standing capability rather than a project that finishes. Participants finish able to explain the engineering and maintenance work discipline to a non-specialist audience without losing precision. Participants come from operational and oversight roles, and both perspectives on structural crack inspection are used deliberately. Work concludes with a self-assessment of this aspect of engineering and maintenance work that participants can repeat annually.

Expected Learning Outcomes

01

Anticipate the objections that structural crack inspection will attract internally and answer them in advance.

02

Measure maintenance performance on structural crack inspection with indicators that drive behaviour.

03

Set criticality ratings that drive work order priority for structural crack inspection.

04

Build the inspection and test plan covering structural crack inspection.

05

Structure records of structural crack inspection so that they answer the questions an auditor will actually ask.

06

Draw practical lessons from failures in structural crack inspection without assigning blame that suppresses reporting.

07

Select the maintenance strategy for structural crack inspection — run to failure, preventive, or condition-based — on evidence.

Course Modules

01

Structural crack inspection: history, documentation and competence

2 sessions · 8 points

Session 1Isolating structural crack inspection safely before work begins

  • Set out the decisions in structural crack inspection that require sign-off and by whom.
  • Assign a criticality rating to structural crack inspection that drives work order priority.
  • Prepare the response for the most likely failure in structural crack inspection.
  • Verify contractor competence and method statements for structural crack inspection.

Session 2How structural crack inspection actually fails, and how much warning you get

  • Check that records of structural crack inspection answer the questions likely to be asked.
  • Map the handovers in structural crack inspection between functions and secure them.
  • Review whether structural crack inspection is aligned with the objectives of the asset base.
  • Record what was learned when structural crack inspection did not go as planned.
02

Structural crack inspection: failure modes, consequence and criticality

2 sessions · 8 points

Session 1Comparing structural crack inspection with recognised practice

  • Record the rationale for each significant choice made about structural crack inspection.
  • Investigate repeat failures on structural crack inspection to root cause, not to component.
  • Close out actions on structural crack inspection rather than leaving them open indefinitely.
  • Set maintenance indicators for structural crack inspection that reward planning rather than heroics.

Session 2Who answers for structural crack inspection, and to whom

  • Define acceptance criteria for completed work on structural crack inspection.
  • Decide what will be stopped to create capacity for structural crack inspection.
  • Establish the boundary of structural crack inspection and record what sits outside it.
  • Check that structural crack inspection still works when volumes rise unexpectedly.
03

Structural crack inspection: choosing the right maintenance strategy

2 sessions · 8 points

Session 1Building lasting competence in structural crack inspection

  • List the credible failure modes of structural crack inspection and the consequence of each.
  • Confirm that reporting on structural crack inspection reaches the people who can act.
  • Confirm isolation and permit requirements before any work on structural crack inspection.
  • Distinguish symptoms from causes when structural crack inspection underperforms.

Session 2Maintenance indicators for structural crack inspection that change behaviour

  • Compare the cost of structural crack inspection with the cost of its absence.
  • Set out how exceptions to structural crack inspection are requested and approved.
  • Verify six months later that changes to structural crack inspection have held.
  • Set the review interval for structural crack inspection and who attends.
04

Structural crack inspection: inspection, testing and acceptance criteria

2 sessions · 8 points

Session 1Investigating the failure on structural crack inspection that keeps returning

  • Establish what evidence demonstrates structural crack inspection is under control.
  • Establish who is informed, consulted and accountable in structural crack inspection.
  • Set escalation thresholds for structural crack inspection that work out of hours.
  • Choose the maintenance strategy for structural crack inspection based on failure pattern, not tradition.

Session 2What condition data on structural crack inspection is telling you early

  • Build the competence framework that supports structural crack inspection.
  • Define acceptance criteria for structural crack inspection in advance.
  • Estimate the resource structural crack inspection requires to run as designed.
  • Agree what will be standardised in structural crack inspection and what will not.
