 General Equation for LRFD Method
All the computation for factored resistance and factored load shall be in accordance with the following equation.
ø: resistance factor
∅ 𝑹𝒏 ≥ ෍ ∝𝒊 𝑸𝒊
Qi: Load effect
Rn: Nominal resistance α: Load factors
Pu: Factored Load
Increase in Load effect ≥ 1
Pu=1.2 PDL +1.6 PLL

Resistance Concepts
 Q and R are assumed statistically independent random variables
 R is sometimes < Q ln
𝑅
𝑄
< 0
 To differentiate between R < Q & R >Q Use ln
𝑅
𝑄
 ∅ = (
𝑹𝒎
𝑹𝒏
)𝒆(−𝟎.𝟓𝟓𝜷𝑽𝑹)
 Where:
 Rm mean resistance
 Rn nominal resistance
 VR Coefficient of variation of the resistance
 LRFD target is to satisfy the following condition
Factored Resistance ≥ Factored Loads
Ф Pn ≥ Pu
Eng. Mohamed Ismail Kotb
Resistance Concepts
 Reliability, is referred to the estimated percentage of times that the
resistance of a structure will equal or exceed the maximum loading
combination applied to the structure during its estimated life (say 50
years)
 Usually steel structures are designed to be 99.7% reliable, then only a
probability of 0.3% the strength will be lower than the applied loads, but
it doesn’t mean failure !!!
 The typical distribution of the Resistance (R) of a member and the
applied loads (Q) are varied and as shown to be normal distribution
Eng. Mohamed Ismail Kotb
Resistance Concepts
 β : reliability Index = number of standard deviations from the mean
Where;
Rm is the mean value for resistance
Qm is the mean value for Load
VR is the coefficients of variation for resistance (𝑉𝑅 =
𝜎𝑅
𝑅𝑚
)
VQ is the coefficients of variation for Load (𝑉𝑄 =
𝜎𝑄
𝑄𝑚
)
Eng. Mohamed Ismail Kotb
Resistance Concepts
 The recommended common load factors, as developed for the ANSI load code, were based o the load statistics
given in Table 1,
 A sampling of the data for hot-rolled steel structural members is given in Tables 2, 3, and 4.

Resistance Concepts
 A sampling of the data for hot-rolled steel structural members is given in Tables 2, 3, and 4.
Eng. Mohamed Ismail Kotb
Resistance Concepts
 Where Ф-1 is the inverse standard normal distribution function.
 Table 1 show the probability of failure corresponding to
different reliability indices.
Eng. Mohamed Ismail Kotb
Resistance Concepts
 β : reliability Index = number of standard deviations from the mean
 β = 1.75 for member subjected to gravity loads and earthquake loads
 β = 2.50 for member subjected to gravity loads and wind loads
 β = 3.00 for members subjected to gravity loads
 β = 4.50 for connections (bolts and weld)
When (β is larger, the probability of exceeding the limit state is smaller, i.e., the "reliability"
is increased; the converse is true when β decreases
 Therefore the resistance factors (Ф) for different members and load factors for different load
combinations are adjusted accordingly to be as mentioned before.
