Abstract :
In this paper a method of designing a structure with interval parameters and fuzzy set parameters is presented. This paper also outlines a procedure for designing a structure with random set parameters. All procedures use solutions of the interval equations which are based on the earlier works of both authors. Safety of the structures is determined by using interval limit state equations.
