The AASHTO LRFD Bridge Design Specifications introduced a probabilistic approach. LRFD separates safety factors into load factors (accounting for overloads) and resistance factors (accounting for material variability). The 10th edition refines this probabilistic model to higher precision, reducing hidden risk while optimizing material use. aashto lrfd bridge design specifications 10th edition
