Challenge Problems
Push your limits with challenges.
Question 1
A new skyscraper has a calculated capacity of 5000 kN under live loads and a demand model of 4400 kN. Calculate the performance function F and interpret the safety margin.
💡 Hint: Utilize the formula and evaluate the margin.
Question 2
Calculate the reliability index using a Monte Carlo simulation outcome where mean = 1.5 and standard deviation = 0.3.
💡 Hint: Think about the statistical relationship between mean and standard deviation.
