| Abstract | |
This work is about structural safety based in the probabilistic methods, applied in the structural design at limit states. Informations about theoretical background and advantages that this method shows related to traditional allowable stress design method are presented. In addition, some examples are presented, showing the determination of the reliability index and limit states factors, which are adjusted to original safety factors of the allowable stress design method.
