Hi,
I am reviewing some fault trees developed in Windchill. The fault tree report describes the process for addressing common mode failure and determines the most appropriate to be the application of a Beta Factor. The value of the beta factor has been determined and applied for all redundancies to address the impact of common mode failure. The order 1 cut sets contain a number of common mode failures where Beta has been applied. All looks good. The only question I have is how do I confirm that a Beta factor has been applied in all scenarios where it is required? Is there away you can get an export from windchill that identifies all the Basic events that have redundancy and need a beta applied or do you have to interrogate the fault trees to identify the redundant elements that require a beta factor to be applied? I have 241 pages of fault trees so I am hoping it is not the latter.
Thanks
