Abstract :
The data usable to evaluate the confidence bounds for the Weibull parameter estimates is provided in broad range of values, in the cases of the “mean squares”, “maximum likelihood” and “generalized maximum likelihood” methods. The way to use these results in practice are described in detail. The results are provided in the form of extended Tables for standard use, and in addition in the form of empirical formulae for easy use in computer programs. The extended tabular data also are available on line in the TDEI World wide web pages
