Abstract

The overall safety of structures and of course the bridges, one of the most interested fields in engineering practice. The full-probabilistic approach works directly with the probabilistic functions. Applying the Monte-Carlo simulation tool it can be calculated a more realistic safety level of the structures and bridges than it is prescribed in standards. In our paper it is determined the full-probabilistic relationships between dead loads, short– and long–lasting loads giving the 2D functions of the applied load combinations.
