... The set of all possible outcomes is called the sample space. For example: Rolling a pair of dice is an experiment. We can represent the outcome with an ordered pair, such as (2, 3), to indicate the number shown on each die. We use an ordered pair rather than a set because we need to count (2, 3) and ...

... Therefore, for a long design life, the chance of at least one occurrence of an event with return period equal to the design life approaches 1 − 1 / e or 0.632.Thus if the design life of a structure and its design return period are the same, the chances are very great that the capacity of the structu ...
