Description
Network Rail's Structures Asset Management Framework identifies the key threats to the
structure asset portfolio. These threats have identified controls, one of which is the inspection
of the asset.
The Structures Examination Framework (CEFA) primary purpose is to;
(1) Provide expertise at the asset to enable immediate safety risks to be understood and
mitigated
(2) Gather intelligence about how key defects are developing and changing with time
(3) Provide Condition Marking information to allow asset deterioration to be modelled and
wider portfolio issues to be managed.
(4) Provide enough information on the condition of the asset such that when combined with
information from NR's other risk control processes decisions can be made on the remaining
fitness for purpose of the asset and appropriate interventions to mitigate risks to this fitness
can be planned in an appropriate timeframe
