PRACTICAL RELEVANCE OF SERVICE LIFE MODELING OF STEEL REINFORCED CONCRETE STRUCTURES

摘要: The use of service life models for reinforced concrete structures encounters several problems in order to be accepted by design engineers and owners as a practical tool redesign. application probabilistic the tunnel redesign an existing marine structure has created some doubt regard objective choice parameter values. A discrepancy been observed between output approach owner's objective. Future developments should directed at requirements supply reliable understandable results that can serve input effective planning. This paper discusses aspects relevance durability steel have experienced Ministry Transport Netherlands.
