Reliability-Based Design of Protection Net Fences: Influence of Rockfall Uncertainties through a Statistical Analysis

Net fences are among the most widespread passive protective measures to mitigate the risk from rockfall events. Despite the current design approach being based on partial safety factors, a more efficient time-dependent reliability approach has been recently introduced by the authors. This method is...
