Design method for reinforced concrete structure durability with the use of safety coefficient by service life period

Abstract The given method uses the safety coefficient by service life period and similar principles as for stochastic method. Moreover, the problem of forecasting the safety is examined in a deterministic form. The given option for the solution is compact in terms of design on an applied level in the format of the boundary conditions method, keeping the efficient control of safety within the service life period. This method has the advantage to design reinforced concrete structures for specified service life period. The proposed method is also applicable for the design of reinforced concrete elements of hydraulic structures in cases when the application of the other stochastic methods would be very complicated. The advantage of the given method is allowing including the stochastic nature of loading parameters and material strength.
