Over the years, structural engineering codes and specifications in Canada and elsewhere have moved from an allowable stress design (ASD) approach to a load and resistance factor design (LRFD) philosophy. LRFD methodology takes better account of the inher...

The load resistance factor according to the target reliability level was proposed using 16 vertical breakwaters constructed along the coast of Korea. Limit state functions for sliding and overturning limit states were defined. Reliability analysis was pe...

Reinforced concrete slab-column structures, despite their advantages such as architectural flexibility and easy construction, are susceptible to punching shear failure. In addition, punching shear failure is a typical brittle failure, which introduces di...

The Highway Capacity Manual (HCM) currently uses a bipolar approach to defining level of service (LOS) for freeway facilities: either (1) weighted density or (2) assigning LOS F if one or more segments experience LOS F. The major shortcoming of this appr...
