Structural Safety and ReliabilityPurpose:To review and develop the principles and methods of structural safety and reliability, and formulate bases for design to insure safety and performance of structures and structural systems with due regard for practical design considerations and building code requirements.
Purpose: To evaluate and disseminate present knowledge to the engineering profession regarding the application of reliability techniques in the design of new buildings and the evaluation of safety of existing buildings. Survey of Textbooks on Reliability and Structural Safety Reliability of Offshore Structures Purpose: To foster development of probabilistic analysis methods, reliability based codes and probabilistic data for offshore structure; define associated research and development needs. Safety of Bridges Purpose: To encourage and evaluate methods of reliability-based design of bridges, and report studies of bridge loading and strength; to assess the requirements for safety of bridge structures, and develop specific code proposals for his purpose. Fatigue and Fracture Reliability Purpose: To review information on fatigue and fracture of structures, and to disseminate and develop this information in forms suitable for formulating reliability-based design, and for evaluating fatigue and fracture control programs. |
