In addition to the normal loss and damage during the service period, the port engineering facilities are also affected by harsh environments such as water erosion, wave erosion, atmospheric corrosion and freezing and thawing. Therefore, it is very important to analyze the reliability of reinforced concrete structures. The reliability analysis of reinforced concrete members is actually based on the fact that the statistical characteristics of the existing loads and structural resistance are known, and the reliability index value of the members is determined through specific calculations to understand the failure probability. Taking the reinforced concrete frame column as an example, the finite element model is established by the simulation software to simulate and analyze the compression of the port structure under the action of ship impact force, ship system force, doorsill machine load, self-weight load and water flow force, the reliability of shear and bending capacity, the analysis results provide the basis for engineering construction and followup research.
