Reliability factors for steel elements designed on the basis of computer numerical models
Introduction. Today, there is an increasing reliance on computer computational models to assess the load-bearing capacity of building structures. However, a very small number of studies address issues of ensuring the reliability of the obtained results. In the current design practice, the design rel...
