“…The parameters which are likely to change by local conditions, load patterns, or damage should be considered as uncertain parameters (Lam et al, 2020;Adeagbo et al, 2021Adeagbo et al, , 2022. The loose fastener only can influence the fastener stiffness a lot, and the values of the model parameters of the substructure (including the prefabricated slab, CA mortar layer and concrete base as well as the foundation) would not be changed too much, which can be referred to Hu et al (2021), therefore, only the scaling factors of the fastener stiffness will be treated as the uncertain model parameters in this study.…”
