The first-order reliability method, (FORM), is a semi-probabilistic reliability analysis method devised to evaluate the reliability of a system.

The accuracy of the method can be improved by averaging over many samples, which is known as Line Sampling.

The method is also known as the Hasofer-Lind Reliability Index, developed by Professor Michael Hasofer and Professor Neil Lind in 1974.[1] The index has been recognized as an important step towards the development of contemporary methods to effectively and accurately estimate structural safety.[2][3]
