Fig. 2. Relationship between failure probability and safety factor.

In these specific cases when such an equivalence between deterministic and probabilistic approaches exists, or in other words there is a functional relationship between safety factor and failure probability one can then carry out a probabilistic design by using a deterministic safety-factor approach which is much simpler, more convenient and less lime-consuming than the probabilistic approach.
