Measured Data Processing in Civil Structure Using the DOProC Method

Article Preview

Abstract:

This paper describes the use of measured values in the probabilistic tasks by means of the new method which is under development now - Direct Optimized Probabilistic Calculation (DOProC). This method has been used to solve a number of probabilistic tasks. DOProC has been applied in ProbCalc a part of this software is a module for entering and assessing the measured data. The software can read values saved in a text file and can create histograms with non-parametric (empirical) distribution of the probabilities. In case of the parametric distribution, it is possible to make selection from among 24 defined types and specify the best choice, using the coefficient of determination. This approach has been used, for instance, for modelling and experimental validation of reliability of an additionally prestressed masonry construction.
