This paper deals with the application of the probabilistic SBRA method to the reliability assessment of steel bar structures, whereas main attention is paid to the evaluation of possible corrosion effects. Advances in computer technology and informatics create assumptions for apposite reliability evaluation of new designed as well as existing structures exposed to corrosion effects. Utilization of probabilistic simulation-based methods can offer to designers quite easy, but simultaneously efficient and applicable tool for analysis of steel structures exposed to corrosion effects. It is so possible to design new structures with respect to the required durability using this method or to evaluate the residual service life of existing structures.
