  • Abstract:
  • Reinforced Cement Concrete (RCC) structures are widely used in civil engineering because of their strength, durability, and cost-effectiveness. However, ensuring their reliability for long-term performance and safety is important. This research investigates the reliability of RCC structures using probabilistic approaches to determine their performance under different loads, material uncertainties, and environmental factors. The analysis is conducted using limit state design principles and considers uncertainties in material properties, loads, and degradation of things over time. Reliability indices are calculated using techniques like the First Order Reliability Method, Monte Carlo Simulation, and sensitivity analysis to evaluate failure risks. Different failure modes, including flexural failure, shear failure, and durability, are analysed to provide a comprehensive reliability analysis. The research also considers the impact of corrosion, fatigue, and seismic loads on RCC structures, including maintenance and risk reduction strategies. The results provide useful information on the safety margins of RCC structures and help engineers make better decisions on design optimization and life-cycle management. This research improves the strength and sustainability of RCC structures to perform optimally in the long term and minimizes the chances of catastrophic failures.
