DETERMINISTIC AND PROBABILISTIC DESIGN OF CONCRETE STRUCTURES -ENVIRONMENTAL ASPECTS


Abstract eng:
This contribution describes a comparison of the concrete structure design results obtained via the partial reliability factor method and using the fully probabilistic method. The Monte Carlo simulation method, modified by the Latin Hypercube Sampling (LHS) method, was used for the calculation of the reliability of a designed structure. Economic and ecological aspects (acquisition costs, CO 2 and SO2 emissions and embodied energy associated with the concrete member production stage, the utilization and operation stage, and demolition) were taken into account when assessing the quality of the design. A design example – a prestressed spun concrete pole manufactured from reinforced concrete – is presented.
