Structural Reliability Analysis of a Marquee Element/Análise De Fiabilidade Estrutural De Um Elemento De Marquise

Abstract

Usually, projects of torsion beams situations caused by marquees are made considering a prescriptive methodology, not considering the unsureness related to the problem. When such uncertainties are ignored, projects can be oversized or not satisfactorily safe. An option to overcome this problem is an application of reliability theory, which consists of quantifying structural safety using probability of failure. Thus, the probability of failure of a beam subjected to torsion caused by a marquee is estimated in this article. For this, the reliability methods FORM (First Order Reliability Method) and Monte Carlo are applied. The reliability analysis are evaluated considering the variation of the geometric

Structural reliability of a RC beam considering different preliminary designs

“…Many applications of structural reliability analysis to reinforced concrete structures may be found in the literature, especially in the last decades (Awruch and Gomes [23]; Novaes et al [24]; Zhang [25], Porto et al [40], Furst [41]). A lot of studies have been devoted to the particular case of reliability analysis of structures designed according to design codes.…”

Caracterização de patologias em marquises na cidade de Gurupi-To

“…Nos últimos anos no Brasil, tem se observado o crescimento na incidência de patologias em marquises de concreto de proteção, que na grande maioria dos casos são ocasionadas por falhas construtivas ou falta de projetos bem elaborados que podem contribuir para o enfraquecimento da estrutura pela penetração de água, podendo levá-la ao colapso gerando vítimas fatais (Novaes et al, 2021). Além das falhas, é possível observar que muitas estruturas não apresentam um comportamento satisfatório diante do propósito para que foram construídas.…”
