Abstract
Structural codes are documents which are subject to periodic revision and amendment. The main reason of this is due to developments from theoretical and experimental research. The rules and codes for the design of civil engineering structures which are prepared or which are under preparation by different regional and international organizations are under review. Similarities and differences in the approaches to the reliability — oriented concept of calculated safety verifications on the design stages prescribed in the codes (available to author) are presented in this paper.
