This study presents a procedure to evaluate the failure probabilities of reinforced-concrete (RC) slabs subjected to low-velocity impacts considering the uncertainties existing in slab features and impactor properties. A two-degree-of-freedom (2-DoF) non-linear model using a dynamic load-displacemen...
