Course details

The Reliability-Based Structural Design course introduces probabilistic methods used to assess and design structures under uncertainty. Instead of relying solely on deterministic safety factors, the course focuses on reliability theory to quantify the probability of failure and ensure consistent levels of structural safety. It provides a modern approach to structural design aligned with performance-based and risk-informed engineering practices.
