Reliability Analysis of 2D Steel Frame
Abstract
A two dimensional frame has been designed
according to IS 800-2007 and are subjected to dead load, live
load and earthquake load combination. In the present study
reliability assessment of structural safety is studied. The
uncertainties in geometry, loads and strength are accounted.
The performance function for strength is studied using
Hasofer Lind method. A MATLAB program has been
developed for computing the reliability index for beams and
columns. System reliability has been performed on the
structure to find the reliability index of the system.
Keywords Reliability Analysis, Probability of Failure, Hasofer Lind Method, Reliability Index, System Reliability.
