(reliability index method) and by simulation
- be able to model system behavior and estimate the reliability
of series and parallel systems
- understand basic concepts of stochastic processes and
timevariant reliability methods

strength parameters and load bearing capacities, and for
environmental loads and load effects using test data and
measurements
- be able to calibrate partial safety factors and load
combination factors
