Safety levels and target probabilities implied in codes of practice*
The concepts of target probability, safety margin and other safety measures are considered. For codes of practice, frequently used in structural engineering to act as guidelines for safety, unmodified economic figures can lead to unrealistically high target probability values. Codes of practice are seen as a constraint on the design process to achieve desired safety targets and a utility function is proposed for this purpose.
