Questions Asked in GATE CE exam
A bridge has an expected design life of 50 years. It is designed for a flood discharge of 1000 m\(^3\)/s, which corresponds to a return period of 100 years. Determine the risk (probability) that the design flood will be equalled or exceeded at least once during the design life of the bridge. (Enter the numerical value of risk in decimal form, correct up to three decimal places.)
