Abstract
: In line with the principles of modern design a building structure should not only be safe but also optimized. In deterministic optimization, the uncertainties of the structures are not explicitly taken into account. Traditionally, uncertainties of the structural system (i.e. material parameters, loads, dimensions of the cross-sections) are considered by means of partial safety factors specified in design codes. Worth noticing, that optimal structures are sensitive to randomness design parameters and deterministic optimal solutions may lead to reduced reliability levels. It therefore seems natural to extendtheformulationofdeterministicoptimizationwiththerandomscatterofparametervalues.Suchaformulationisofferedbyrobustoptimizationandreliability-baseddesignoptimization.Theapplicability ofRBDOisstronglydependentontheavailabilityofthejointprobabilitydensityfunction.Aformulationofnon-deterministicoptimizationthatbetteradaptstothedesignrealitiesisrobustoptimization. UnlikeRBDOoptimization,thisformulationdoesnotrequireestimationoffailureprobabilities.Inthepaperusingtheexamplesofsteelbeams,theauthorscomparethestrengthsandweaknessesofboth formulations
