dc.description.abstractStructural reliability depends on uncertainties in resistance and loads. In many practical cases the resistance dominates and a reduction of uncertainty about resistance is an effective way of increasing safety. It can be accomplished by proof loading.A truncated distribution is considered and reliability indices are calculated for various proof load levels. The structural reliability is sensitive to proof loading for larger coefficients of variation of resistance.A Bayesian approach is applied to develop a posterior distribution for resistance, after proof loading. Reliability indices are calculated for various ratios of the coefficients of variation of load and resistance.en_US
