Abstract

The results of the evaluation of the reliability of reinforced concrete beams lying on an elastic foundation are presented. The load on the beam is considered as a non-stationary random function, the elastic properties of the foundation are described as a stationary random function. Beam stiffness is considered as a random variable depending on the cubic strength of concrete. To solve the beam bending equation on an elastic foundation with random properties and a loaded non-stationary random load, the small parameter method and the method of spectral representations are used. The obtained probability characteristics of the probability density distribution of bending moments allow us to find the probability of failure of a reinforced concrete beam on an elastic stochastically inhomogeneous foundation.

Highlights

  • The results of the evaluation of the reliability of reinforced concrete beams lying on an elastic foundation are presented

  • In [7] the parameters of the distribution of deflections and bending moments in a reinforced concrete beam lying on an elastic foundation were constructed

  • (29) into the expression for the probability of failure of a reinforced concrete beam over a normal cross section (2) and considering that all the above calculations were made for a concrete implementation of the concrete cube strength R, which is a random variable with a Gaussian distribution pR(R) with parameters: expectation < R > and variance DR and on which the beam stiffness and the probability characteristics of bending moments depend, find the probability of jelly destruction reinforced concrete beams of normal cross section
