Reliability of Steel Truss Roof Systems Under Variable Snow Load Profiles

International Journal of Steel Structures, 2020
The probabilistic safety analysis of steel truss roof systems under variable snow load profiles is investigated. The roofs of structures such as industrial buildings or sports halls, which require wide areas, are frequently subjected to unexpectedly high loads.

Using statistical and interval-based approaches to propagate snow measurement uncertainty to structural reliability

open access: yesInternational Journal of Reliability and Safety, 2018
Observations are inevitably contaminated with measurement uncertainty, which is a predominant source of uncertainty in some cases. In present practice probabilistic models are typically fitted to measurements without proper consideration of this uncertainty.

Reliability of steel roof structures under snow loads

Structural Safety, 2015
Abstract The collapse of roof structures under extreme snow loads can harm building occupants, leave building owners burdened by costs of repairs, and lead to loss of income, equipment or merchandise. This study investigates the reliability of two types of steel roofs: those supported by open web steel joists, and those supported by wide-flange steel
