Abstract
Various forms of recently appeared concepts of structure system redundancy are studied. A new measure for existing structure redundancy is proposed. By introducing the concept of structure system failure at the mechanism level and the concept of equivalent reliability index, the evaluation of safety criteria for existing offshore structures is developed. By employing the method presented in this paper, system redundancy has been evaluated for some numerical examples and satisfactory results have been drawn.
