A platform for research: civil engineering, architecture and urbanism
Although subjective and empirical considerations may be inevitable for the time being, structural design codes are moving towards a probabilistic basis. The use of split safety factors, such as the limit-states design or the load factor design criteria, backs up this trend. This paper describes the state-of-the-art of the design loads of structures, with particular emphasis on their stochastic and statistical characteristics, which will serve to evaluate the load factors with the aid of second-moment format or semiprobabilistic approach.
