Abstract
												A proof load design is useful for estimation of the dependence between two strength properties of a unit when either property can only be measured by loading to failure. Here we extend the application of the proof load design to estimate the parameters of a bivariate Weibull distribution. An example concerning the bending and tensile strengths lumber is presented.
