Abstract

Reliability is the ability of the structure to meet the construction requirements set under specified conditions during the service life, according which it is designed. It refers to the capacity, serviceability and durability of construction and according to them different techniques of reliability can be defined. In this paper the reliability index is used to present the size of uncertainty in the theory of reliability.  Two types of techniques are used to obtain the reliability index, which are First Order Reliability Method and Hosofer-Lind Method. The design of rectangular reinforced concrete section of beam is considered. The llablty and flexural failure   caused by tension of the beam section are discussed. The methodology involved in determining the reliability to the design variables which are bending moment, cross sectional area, specified yield strength, specified compressive strength of concrete.
