Reliability of Structures, Second Edition |
Reliability of Structures enables both students and practising engineers to appreciate how to value and handle reliability as an important dimension of structural design. It discusses the concepts of limit states and limit state functions, and presents methodologies for calculating reliability indices and calibrating partial safety factors. It also supplies information on the probability distributions and parameters used to characterize both applied loads and member resistances.
This revised and extended second edition contains more discussions of US and international codes and the issues underlying their development. There is significant revision and expansion of the discussion on Monte Carlo simulation, along with more examples.
The book serves as a textbook for a one-semester course for advanced undergraduates or graduate students, or as a reference and guide to consulting structural engineers. Its emphasis is on the practical applications of structural reliability theory rather than the theory itself. Consequently, probability theory is treated as a tool, and enough is given to show the novice reader how to calculate reliability. Some background in structural engineering and structural mechanics is assumed.
A solutions manual is available upon qualifying course adoption.

it's really good start point with reliability analysis. It has many examples to illustrate each topic especially hasofer iteration- Lind method. first chapters give you an introduction to the probability concept with examples. Chapter 4 and 5 explain the methods of reliability analysis supported by examples. This book will be reference one for the course of reliability analysis that will be offered in the winter term at ( Oregon State university/ structural engineering) This year 2013/2014.
Thanks.
It is as I expected.
Good scope covered on reliability of structures.
I hope to be useful on my classes.
Nice and very comprehensive book in the field of reliability of structures.
Excellent conditions
