文摘The evaluation of reliability for structural system is important in engineering practices.In this paper,by combining the design point method,JC method,interval analysis theory,and increment load method,we propose a new interval design point method for the reliability of structural systems in which the distribution parameters of random variables are described as interval variables.The proposed method may provide exact probabilistic interval reliability of structures whose random variables can have either a normal or abnormal distribution form.At last,we show the feasibility of the proposed approach through a typical example.
