Set Current Stress Rating
Explanation
This activity is used to set the current stress rating for a serial
structure. The current stress rating is displayed in several windows and is
identified by the stress rating ID and the template part number and revision for
which the stress rating is defined. The current stress rating can be changed by
using the Set Current Stress Rating right mouse button option in the Serial
Structure Information/Additional Serial Info/Life and Cost sub tab. You
will need to enter the new current stress rating for the top serial and/or any
branches in the serial structure that have their own stress ratings defined. The
current stress rating can only be changed from the top item of a serial
structure.
Prerequisites
- The serial structure, where one or more template parts
have valid stress ratings defined, must exist.
System Effects
- The current stress rating will be stored on each LLP (life limited part)
serial in the structure. This is critical for getting the correct drop dead
dates.
- The current stress rating will be used when logging
operational values on the serial, which will have impact on the remaining
life of the serial.
- The due calculation for life limited parts will run automatically for
the serial to calculate due dates and values.
