Adding linear condition references to equipment

Add linear condition references to linear equipment. Linear condition references are similar to linear references but specifically deal with the condition, risk, and criticality of the particular section of linear equipment.

For example, a rail track may have a straight segment of 500 feet that is in good condition and is a low risk, followed by a curved segment of 300 feet that is in medium condition and has a higher risk.

To add linear condition references to linear equipment:

  1. Select one of these options:
    • Equipment > Assets
    • Equipment > Systems
    • Equipment > Positions
  2. Select the asset, system, or position for which to add a linear condition, and then click the Linear Condition tab. The system automatically populates Equipment Length, the unit of measure in the adjacent field, and Direction.
  3. Specify this information:
    Condition Score
    Optionally, specify the condition score for the linear equipment..
    Condition Index
    Optionally, specify a condition index for the linear equipment.
    Risk Priority Number
    Optionally, specify the risk priority number for the linear equipment.
    Risk Priority Index
    Optionally, specify a risk priority index for the linear equipment.
    Criticality Score
    Optionally, specify the criticality score for the linear equipment.
    Criticality
    Optionally, specify the criticality index for the linear equipment.
    From Point
    Specify the point on the linear equipment record from which to begin the condition.
    To Point
    Specify the point on the linear equipment record to end the condition.
    Date Effective
    Specify the effective date for the linear condition.
    Date Expired
    Specify the expiration date for the linear condition.
    Apply to Children
    Optionally, select this check box to have the linear conditions of this record applied to all of the child records.
  4. Click Submit.
