When assessing existing structures, the availability of adequate safety factors, calibrated
with the most accurate models, and for established target reliability indexes, is of critical …

Target reliability levels are derived by optimizing initial structural costs and considering three
major types of potential consequences of structural failure: a) direct and indirect economic …

The relatively high failure rates, with important consequences in many cases, suggest that
the implicitly acceptable risk levels corresponding to temporary civil engineering structures …

The specification of risk and reliability acceptance criteria is a key issue of reliability
verifications of new and existing structures. Current target reliability levels in standards …

Accidental hazards are associated with large uncertainties regarding their occurrence
probability, their effects on a structure and the possible consequences these effects might …
