Abstract
In order to achieve a predefined level of reliability in the attainment of the design goal, the reliability analysis is repeated for increasing values of the overstrength factor of the dissipative zones to be used in TPMC, aiming to its calibration. Finally, on the basis of the results of a parametric analysis, a simple relationship to compute the value of the overstrength factor needed to include the influence of random material variability in the application of TPMC is proposed.
