Prerequisites:
▪None.
Overview:
A failure cause is an indication of the deficiencies of the design/process/asset, whose consequences are the failure modes. It can be defined also as the way in which failure can occur, described for something that can be corrected or controlled. There is a direct relationship between the cause and its resulting failure mode, that is, if the cause occurs, then failure mode occurs. Identifying the root cause (or root causes) of a failure mode supplying enough details, allows for the identification of controls and appropriate action plans. Examples of causes for failure include: overloading, incorrect specification of the material, poor maintenance instructions, insufficient lubrication capacity, among others.
