Reliability-based design (RBD) procedures for engineered structures
are being developed and quickly gaining acceptance by cade agencies
throughout the world. Numerous organizations are involved in the
development of national or regional cades without the benefit of
interchange of ideas and methodologies. Harmonization and
coordination of these activities is absolutely essential if the
ever-increasing international commerce is to flourish. This NATO
Advanced Research Workshop (ARW) was organized to bring together,
for the first time, experts on RBD and related subjects from
various countries to assess the current knowledge and recommend new
developments. Further, due to their unique nature and great
economic significance in most parts of the world, special emphasis
was placed on engineered wood structures. For example, in North
America more wood products are used in construction than ali other
materials (steel, concrete, brick, etc.) combined. However, the
wood industry segment, historically, receives less attention and
smaller financial support for new developments than other
construction materials. RBD developments are being conducted in
Similar, but largely independent, Europe, North America, New
Zealand and Australia. Experts from these regions were brought
together to exchange information on current work, propose new
developments and to provide means of international coordination.
Thus, this ARW provided an opportunity to advance the cause of RBD
of engineered wood structures.
