THE RELIABILITY OF SOIL STRUCTURE INTERACTION

This paper presents mathematical models of reliability and of structures in parallel, in series, and series-parallel. In the case of a structure interacting with the subsoil it is assumed that it is the random load capacity (soil strength under foundations, displacement, settlement, differential settlement) which determines the reliability of the system. For the covering abstract of the conference see TRIS no 450958. (TRRL)
