Original Abstract

The paper describes an application of artificial neural network-based inverse reliability method for reliability-based design of selected parameters of the concrete bridge. The design reliability level is determined using a fully probabilistic approach. The analysed structure is a single-span concrete bridge made of precast MPD3 and MPD4 girders post-tensioned by longitudinal as well as transversal tendons. According to diagnostic survey the bridge exhibits a spatial variability of deterioration which brings uncertainty into actual values of concrete strength in transverse joints and of actual loss of pre-stressing. Mean value and coefficient of variation of these two variables were considered as the design parameters with the aim of finding their critical values corresponding to desired reliability level and load-bearing capacity. Here, various load levels together with several values of mean tensile strength were considered.

Keywords

Inverse analysis, probability analysis, artificial neural networks, decompression limit state, crack limit state and normal load-bearing capacity.
