A comprehensive statistical analysis of creep data is a difficult task because there are many layers of uncertainty for a given dataset. Sources of uncertainty are inherent in both the databases that provide data, and the data themselves. Additionally, creep rupture predictions made with time-temperature parameter (TTP) models add an additional layer of uncertainty due to the fundamentally different ways in which each TTP model predicts creep behavior. A set of guidelines from the ECCC currently exist for such analyses, but they are best suited for narrowly-defined datasets. In this study, a broader set of guidelines are developed to analyze …
