Knowledge Level

Users may select the Knowledge Level that corresponds to the available data on the structural configuration. Three knowledge levels are defined. A more detailed description on the factors determining the achieved knowledge level is available in the specific pages for the Eurocodes, ASCE, NTC-18, KANEPE or TBDY. The value of the confidence factor that corresponds to the chosen Knowledge Level is automatically assigned, although it is also possible to specify different values by selecting the Custom value checkbox (e.g. according to the country’s National Annex for the case of Eurocodes).
