The aim of this research project is to establish the basis for deriving a consistent set of probabilistic models for strength and stiffness related timber material properties and to calibrate corresponding partial safety factors such that the level of structural reliability for timber structures is equivalent to the safety of concrete and steel structures. This is seen in the light of the ongoing revision of the national Swiss codes for the design of structures. The probabilistic modelling of resistance related timber material properties, in a short term- and in a long term perspective, is of particular relevance for the past and ongoing research.
