Written for students and professionals, this reference presents the advanced methods of predicting concrete structural lifetime and safety. It explains statistical parameters and design-based reliability in straightforward and practical ways. It describes the effects of corrosion and poor construction quality on the structural safety of reinforced concrete structures and how to rehabilitate and extend structural lifetime. Furthermore, this reference offers modeling techniques for loads in a probabilistic manner. The author presents ACI, British Standard, Limit State Design, and European codes based on the reliability theory for reinforced concrete structures as well.
