Reliability Based Code calibration: the use of the JCSS Probabilistic Model Code

conference paper
A reliability based code calibration procedure is a two step procedure. In the first step target reliabilities are set on the basis of experience or optimisation and in the second step corresponding partial factors and other safety elements (e.g. PSI-values as in Eurocode 1) are derived. This paper illustrates the use of the JCSS Probabilistic Model Code in both steps. Some illustrative examples, based on the method of the standardised FORM coefficients, according to ISO 2394, are presented
