Description: The reliability of spliced, nailed, connections is assessed taking into account the random nature of the loads and material strength. The safety of each component (lumber, plywood and nails) is evaluated in terms of the reliability index, 0, and reliability bounds on the system are evaluated and com pared with target values. This approach makes it possible to identify those components which affect most significantly the safety of the con nection. The reliability index for individual components was found to be above generally accepted levels. The lumber components were found to have the lowest reliability index and they have the largest effect on the overall system reliability. The level of safety associated with nailed connections designed using nail capacity values given by the Limit States Design Code is less conservative and more realistic than that associated with connections designed using Working Stress Design.
