Probabilistic Based Safety Factors in the Netherlands
Summary In the early eighties it was decided for the new generation of codes in The Netherlands that for all building materials the same safety concept should be pursued. The Safety Project should provide a set of safety factors factors for the load and resistance factor design procedure introduced by the new generation of codes. Outlined are the procedures used and results for the different building materials including timber. It appears that the safety of timber structures is comparative with steel and concrete structures.
