Step3.calcualtion of new Xif<br />
Xif = α β<br />
Step4.using estimated values of mean and standard deviation, calculate Xif new<br />
Xifnew = µ i + σ Xif<br />
Step5.repeat the iteration until reliability index value converge to single value.<br />
Evaluation of reliability<br />
Limiting state of interest g(X1, X2, X3) = 7.5*X1*X2 – X3 = 0. Iteration process is<br />
