Limit State and the Design of


Reinforced concrete
Limit State

intended use, it is said to have reached a limit state.

Limit State and the Design of


Reinforced concrete
The Ultimate Limit States
z These involve a structural collapse of part or all of the
structure.

z Such a limit state should have a very low probability of


occurrence, since it may lead to loss of life and major
financial losses

Limit State and the Design of


Reinforced concrete
Serviceability Limit States
z These involves disruption of the functional use of the
structure, but not collapse.

z Since there is less danger of loss of life, a higher probability


of occurrences can generally be tolerated than in the case
of an ultimate limit state.

Structural Safety
y Variability in resistance
z The actual strengths (resistances) of beams,
beams column,
column or
other structural members will almost always differ from the
values calculated by the designer. The main reasons for this
are as follows
z variability of the strength of the concrete and reinforcement

z differences between the as-built dimensions and those shown on the


structural drawings,

z effects of simplifying assumptions made in deriving the equations for


member resistance.

Structural Safety
y Variability in loads
z All loadings are variables,
variables especially live loads and
environmental loads due to snow, wind, or earthquakes

z In addition to actual variations in the loads themselves, the


assumptions and approximations made in carrying out
structural analysis lead to differences between the actual
p
forces and moments and those computed byy the designer.

Structural Safety

y Due to the variability of resistances and load effects,


there is definite chance that a weaker-than-average
weaker than average
structure will be subjected to a higher- than-average
load.

y In extreme cases, failure may occur.

y The load factors and resistance factors are selected


to reduce the probability of failure to a very small
level.

of resistance of a group of similar

y S = Distribution of the maximum


load effects, S, expected to occur on

Probabilistic Calculation of Safety


Factors

y If the distribution is shifted to the right


by increasing the resistance, thereby
making Ŷ larger, β will increase, and
the shaded area, Pf is a function of β.
The factor β is called the safety
index.
y If β = 3.5, it means that 1 in every
10,000 structural members designed
on the basis that β = 3.5 will fail due
to excessive load or under strength
sometime during its life time.

Prof. Dr. Qaisar Ali 46

23
Department of Civil Engineering, N-W.F.P. University of Engineering and Technology Peshawar

Probabilistic Calculation of Safety


Factors
y The appropriate values of Pf and hence of β are
chosen by bearing in mind the consequences of
failure.

y Based on current design practice, β is taken between


3 and 3.5 for ductile failure with average
consequences of failure and between 3.5 and 4 for
sudden failure or failures having serious
consequences.

Prof. Dr. Qaisar Ali 47

Department of Civil Engineering, N-W.F.P. University of Engineering and Technology Peshawar

Probabilistic Calculation of Safety


Factors
y Because the strength and loads vary independently,
it is desirable to have one factor or a series of
factors, to account for the variability in resistances
and a second series of factors to account for the
variability in load effects.

y These are referred as to, respectively, as strength


reduction factors (also called resistance factors), Ø
and load factors, α.

states design philosophy of the code.
z 9.1.1- structures and structural members shall be designed to
have design strengths at all sections at least equal to the
required strength calculated for the factored loads and forces
in such combinations as are stipulated in this code.

Design Procedures Specified in


the ACI Code
y This process is called strength design in the ACI
code.
z In the AISC Specifications for steel design, the same
design process is known as LRFD (Load and Resistance

z Strength design and LRFD are methods of limit-state


design except that primary attention is always placed on
design,
the ultimate limit states, with the serviceability limit
states being checked after the original design is
completed.

of the structure under construction, unless analysis indicates adequate
strength to support such additional loads

moments resulting from imposed or restrained deformations
and assigns them a load factor of 1.2. This section states,
z Estimations of differential settlement, creep, shrinkage, expansion of
shrinkage-compensating concrete, or temperature change shall be
based on a realistic assessment of such effects occurring in service.

z The commentary for this section states,


z The term realistic assessment is used to indicate that the most probable

used.
