Bak Kong Low

Reliability-Based Design in Soil and Rock Engineering (eBook, ePUB)

Enhancing Partial Factor Design Approaches

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

This text contains probabilistic analyses and reliability-based designs (RBD) for the enhancement of the Eurocode 7 (EC7) and the Load and Resistance Factor Design (LRFD) methods. Renowned cases in soil and rock engineering are analysed both deterministically and probabilistically.
