R 100 General
Sec.6 R
101 If a structure or component shows a failure mechanism not
described above it may be necessary to describe a design criterion
for this failure mechanism.
Sec.6 R
102 All design criteria shall be verified against experimental evidence.
The model factor assigned to the design criterion shall compensate
for the discrepancies between prediction and experiment. The model
factor is a deterministic factor.
Sec.6 R
103 It shall be confirmed that the design criterion is of general
nature and does not just apply to one material or one load case,
unless the criterion is only used for that particular condition.
Sec.6 R
104 The partial safety factors in the criterion shall calibrated by
probabilistic methods to ensure a consistent level of safety with
respect to the rest of the standard.
