Contributions in Uncertainty Quantification Towards Reliability-based Rock Engineering Design
… problems in contemporary rock engineering design which arise in the context of developing limit states design (LSD) protocols. In doing so, it identifies the discrepancies between geotechnical limit states design standards and customary rock engineering design procedures. These …

Numerical Study and Load and Resistance Factor Design (LRFD) Calibration for Reinforced Soil Retaining Walls
Load and resistance factor design (LRFD) (often called limit states design (LSD)) has been mandated in the AASHTO Bridge Design Specifications and will be adopted in future editions of Canadian Highway Bridge Design Code for all transportation-related structures including reinforced soil retaining …

Load and resistance factor design of cold-formed stainless steel structural members
<p>"The allowable stress design (ASD) method has long been used for the design of steel structures in the United States. Recently, the probability-based load and resistance factor design (LRFD) criteria have been successfully applied to the structural design of hot-rolled steel shapes and built-up …
