This thesis presents a comparison of correlation methods in risk analysis. A theoretical solution is given to the correlation problem along with a discussion of each method. Each method is compared to a developed test case and two other cost projects. Restrictions on correlation coefficients are also given followed by the advantages and disadvantages of each method.
