MAINTENANCE, REPAIR, AND OVERHAUL
Maintenance, repair, and overhaul (MRO) refers to any action, including tests, measurements, replacements, and adjustments, that helps to maintain or restore products, machinery, tooling, or plants to their working conditions. Planned, predictive, preventative, and corrective maintenance are the main forms of overhaul.
As structure engineers or maintenance managers, you are responsible for the integrity of parts, equipment, or infrastructure. You are in charge of characterizing and repairing defects according to the acceptance criteria detailed in the manufacturer’s manual. To do so, you have to find and apply the right repair methods or contact the OEM to determine if the measured data exceeds the acceptance criteria. Unreliable data and unrepeatable results complicate your work, as do user-dependent measurements. How can you characterize damages and take corrective actions if the measured data on the same structure differs from one operator to another? More importantly, how can you make the right repair decision knowing that important operational and safety issues are often at stake?
