Summary: Limit state design has been adopted for the analysis of structures. Ultimate limit state is connected with nonlinear analysis, which is directly or indirectly included in the analysis. In the draft of new international codes EUROCODE and ISO only some numerical models for simple cases are prescribed. Further research is still in progress. In the proposed project we shall actively participate in this research particulary in connection with box-girders subjected to bending and torsion, the application of cold formed steel for shear rigid walls, the rquired rotation capacity in plastic range needed to the classification of cross sections and the low-cycle fatigue of steel and composite bridge structure. Composite columns shall be subject to detailed research, because their structural capacity has not been uniformly defined.

Keywords: limit state, box-girder, torsion, bending, cold formed steel,rotation capacity,low-cycle fatigue, composite columns

Research goals: - incorporation of recent trends of development in the field of metal and composite structures - boost to the competitive ability of metal and composite structures - groundwork to introducing new concepts of safety and stability checks through limit state analysis to wider civil engineering community - contribution to technical codes and standards - contribution to permanent education of engineers
