FMEA Item Table BK
The following table describes the data that appears in characters 36 through 47 of the FMEA Item Table BK. This table is outputted once for each FMEA Tree Items record. It contains one row for each Mission Phase Code/Severity Code combination. For example, it has one row for Phase 1, Severity 1; another row for Phase 1, Severity 2; another row for Phase 2, Severity 1, and so on. Only combinations that exist for modes associated with a FMEA Tree record are outputted per FMEA Tree record.

MISSION PHASE CODE
All phases in the Project’s Mission Profile file are numbered sequentially. The selection for the Mission Phase field for the mode is converted to the number of the association phase from the Mission Profile file. This number is used as the mission phase code. If no phase is selected for the Mission Phase field, then an X is used to indicate that the failure mode applies to all phases.
37
RAMS SAFETY HAZARD SEVERITY CODE
In the FMEA Worksheet, the Severity field must be at the mode level and tied to a list. This code is the value associated with the selected list item. The value must be 1, 2, 3, or 4. Otherwise, a 0 is used as the code.
38-47
RAM ITEM CRITICALITY VALUE
The criticality value for the FMEA Tree Items record associated with the Mission Phase/Severity combination. This value is the sum of the mode criticality values for every mode with this Mission Phase/Severity combination.
