This paper discusses how to formulate the reliability analysis of an inspected structure to make the best use of the experience, taking into account the uncertain factors in inspection, proof-load test and statistical characteristics of random variables involved. Two typical cases are taken as examples; one in which basic information is avairable for the analysis including detailed output of NDI and another case where simple visual inspection is only source of data. For both cases, Bayesian method is applied. Monte Carlo simulation demonstrates the use of present method.
