It would be nice to have a root cause failure analysis guidebook to validate some of the common failures I am witnessing in pipes and other materials on an industrial plant near me.
I remember an old mini guidebook that one of my professors had in his possession titled "Root Cause Analysis Guidebook" by Chun Choi that he used quite frequently in his reports. However, I was not able to find that book online anywhere for some reason. I am not sure if I have the title correct.
Jamel - I cant recommend a specific book but in my view it all comes down to having a complete and hierarchical taxonomy so that elements are placed in logical groups and sub groups so that there is a place for everything and everything is in its place. The following paper and PowerPoint Presentation may be helpful:

MSS 1000 is based on this taxonomy so having determined the root causes the corresponding parts of the IMS can be identified, reviewed and improved as necessary.
ASM handbook on Failure analysis and prevention is best reference book.
