Question 1

What is Risk-Based Inspection (RBI)?

A systematic process that uses risk analysis to prioritize and plan inspections based on the probability and consequence of failure An inspection methodology based on random selection of equipment An inspection that only considers the age of equipment A method that eliminates the need for periodic inspections

Correct Answer:

A systematic process that uses risk analysis to prioritize and plan inspections based on the probability and consequence of failure

Question 2

In Risk-Based Inspection, risk is defined as the combination of which two factors?

Probability of failure and consequence of failure Cost and schedule Age and pressure Temperature and thickness

Correct Answer:

Probability of failure and consequence of failure

Question 3

API 579-1/ASME FFS-1 ASME Section I ASME Section V NFPA 70

Correct Answer:

API 579-1/ASME FFS-1

Question 4

What are the three assessment levels in API 579-1/ASME FFS-1?

Basic, intermediate, and expert levels based on inspector experience Level 1 (screening), Level 2 (standard engineering evaluation), and Level 3 (advanced analysis requiring detailed stress analysis) Levels based on pressure rating: low, medium, and high Assessment levels based on vessel size: small, medium, and large

Correct Answer:

Level 1 (screening), Level 2 (standard engineering evaluation), and Level 3 (advanced analysis requiring detailed stress analysis)

Question 5

What is creep damage, and at what approximate temperature does it become a concern for carbon steel?

Mechanical wear — occurs at all temperatures Time-dependent plastic deformation under stress at elevated temperature — becomes significant above approximately 700-750 degrees F for carbon steel Chemical corrosion — occurs below 200 degrees F Fatigue cracking — occurs only at cryogenic temperatures

Correct Answer:

Time-dependent plastic deformation under stress at elevated temperature — becomes significant above approximately 700-750 degrees F for carbon steel
