RBI Plots

The RBI Plot tab shows the risks associated with the component versus the various critical dates during the analysis. You can choose to view a plot of either the financial risk or the area risk. Note that for components that do not have a calculated area risk (e.g., tank components at atmospheric pressure), the area risk plot will not show any meaningful data.

The risk values that always appear for a component are those associated with the RBI date and the plan date without any recommended inspections. If calculated results indicate that the component requires inspections prior to the plan date, then the risks at the target date (for inspections) and the plan date (with inspections performed) are also shown. In addition, if by estimation the component reaches minimum wall thickness, a red line will be shown to signify the date associated with reaching minimum wall thickness.

Plot Capabilities

When working with the RBI Plot tab, you have the same capabilities that you have when working with plots in an FMEA or functional failure analysis. (See Basic Plot Features.)
