Abstract: |
The safety criteria for building structures are provided in regulations as minimum requirements. Then people usually do not pay attentions to the level of safety. However the local conditions for the seismic activity, soil conditions and social behaviour are rather different. The appropriate safety level has to be based on the demands of stakeholders including clients and users. The target safety criteria for school gymnasium are discussed as an example. The minimum total expected cost principle is applied as a tool for the discussion. |
