In the analysis of engineering structures are usually adopt the method of fixed value, that is the practical engineering structure under load and the performance of materials used by structure shall be treated as a constant value.But, in fact, the structure of geometry size, bear the load, material parameters,computing model and so on are affected by various factors. In order to more accurately reflect the reliability problems of reinforced concrete structures, this paper, the factors above will be regarded as random variables, combining the basic theory of reliability design, through the probability analysis, in normal uselimit state reliability of reinforced concrete structures for example analysis of the influence of related parameters on the structural reliability.

Concrete deformation measured under a certain condition in the experiment are very different from those in practical engineering structures, therefore, its necessary to monitor concrete properties in structures. In the paper, by real-time continuous monitoring of reinforcement concrete slab prepared with expansive agent, time-dependent temperature variations and strain variations are obtained and analyzed, and indoor test of the mechanical properties and deformation of field sampling from the slab are presented, so that this completes a transition from the specimen in experiment to the structure in engineering. The result shows that: there was no early-age crack in the four month after casting; the temperature had a certain increase due to heat generation of cement, which can lead to shrinkage deformation in cooling period; the temperature fluctuate with ambient temperature and there are obvious peak temperature rise about 15°C; There was a certain expansion at heating period, which can be considered as compensating shrinkage caused at late age in a certain extent so that minimum strain value is just about-120με which are not beyond the ultimate tensile strain. In addition, the measured experimental data can provide helpful reference for early crack control and durability of concrete structure, and they can also be use to verify and improve the accuracy of the numerical results for slab, which is available in the future for basis to similar projects and research.

In order to update analytical models of practical engineering structures, inverse eigensensitivity method (IEM) has been developed. Though it has nowadays been widely accepted, the classical inverse eigensensitivity method does have some drawbacks such as the assumption of small error magnitudes and slow speed of convergence due to the fact that the sensitivity coefficients are calculated purely based on modal data of analytical model. In the present paper, an improved inverse eigensensitivity method, which avoids the existing problems of classical inverse eigensensitivity method, has been developed. The improved method employs both analytical and experimental modal data to calculate the required eigensensitivity coefficients which are very close to their true values. The method has been further extended to the case where measured coordinates are incomplete. Practical applicability of the method has been assessed by its application to the updating of the finite element model of a plane truss structure.
