Target Reliability Levels for the Assessment of Existing Structures - Case Study
Original language description
Specification of the target reliability levels is one of the key issues of the assessment of existing structures. ISO 13822 (2003) and ISO 2394 (1998) indicate procedures for specification of the target reliability levels by optimisation of the total cost related to an assumed remaining working life of a structure. In the submitted case study these approaches are applied to estimate the target reliability levels of an existing structural member in conjunction with the human safety criteria. Obtained results are critically compared with the recommendations given in present standards. It appears that requirement on the same target reliability levels for existing structures as for new structures is uneconomical. Further, the cost optimisation seems to yield rather low reliability levels and human safety criteria become decisive for specification of the target reliabilities of existing structures.
