Determination of Target Safety for Structures
Original language description
Codes of practice aim at guaranteeing structures having the risks acceptable to the public and the minimum total costs over a design working life. However, current criteria for structural design provide a broad range of target reliability indices, specified often for different reference periods even though their recalculation for different reference periods is indeterminate due to mutual dependence of failure events. General approaches for selecting target reliability levels are discussed in view of cost-benefit optimisation and human safety aspects. Design strategies seem to be driven by economic arguments rather than by human safety criteria.
