Learning outcomes
The student will acquire knowledge related to all aspects of structural reliability and conceptual structural design. The course will provide concepts to estimate the failure probability of structures and the structural behavior of complex buildings. At the end of the course the student will be able to: - master the basic principles of mathematical theory of probability applied to engineering - estimate the uncertainties related to loads and strengths of structures - master the basic principles of conceptual design of complex structures to predict their structural behavior - estimate the uncertainties in structural behavior and its modelling - calculate the reliability of simple structural systems - understand the nature and origin of the current structural design code formats. The course contributes to the objectives of the master's course related to structural design and natural risk management.
