Response to the following :
(a) Calculate the load and resistance factors using the data of Problem 1 and a reliability of 99%.
(b) Calculate the resulting safety factor.
Problem 1:
Consider a material with measured strength values F given in Table . Assume the expected stress values to be one-half of the values in Table. Calculate the safety factor and the reliability of the system.
