Median and Maximum Maintenance Time Analysis

The document discusses calculating median and maximum maintenance times from provided data tables. It asks to calculate the median active corrective, preventive, and maximum corrective maintenance times at 95% confidence from Table 1. It also asks to calculate availability metrics like total, inherent, achieved, and operational availability using the downtime data in Tables 1 and 2.

Tutorial 2

Question 1.
a) What do you understand by the term median active corrective maintenance
time?
b) Use the data given on table 1 to calculate:
i. Median active corrective maintenance,
ii. Median active preventive maintenance, and
iii. Maximum active corrective maintenance at 95% confidence level from
the following information (For this sample Z at 95% = 1.65).
Maintenance actions 3,5,8,11 are preventive maintenance actions and the
remaining are breakdown maintenance actions

Question 2

i) What do you understand by the term maximum active corrective maintenance


time (Mmax)?

ii) Calculate Mmax at 95% confidence level from the data shown on table 1 and
table 2

iii) Use the data depicted on table 1 and intellectual assumption to calculate the
following data if given that the cycle time was 24,000 minutes:
a) Total Availability A;
b) Inherent Availability A1;
c) Achieved availability Aa;
d) Operational Availability Ao.

and 14 are break down maintenance whereas the rest of activities are
preventive maintenance.
