Explain the benefit of designing a foundation with LRFD as opposed to ASD
Solution
The LRFD is certainly an improvement over the ASD. It takes better account of variability in
both loading and resistance. LRFD is a reliability based design. Even before taking my reliability
based design class, I always had my doubt in applying a single factor of safety for an output
derived from inputs of varying reliability. The one disadvantage of LRFD is the lack of sufficient
statistical data to select appropriate factors in certain specific cases, but still better than ASD.
