The structural design of concrete structures has to result in qualities ensuring ordinary structural safety and serviceability, together with durability. Recently, it has become necessary to pursue sustainability as well, and rather newly the issue of resilience has also appeared. It is now apparent that the effects of mechanical load, environmental load and even social coherence need to be reflected and included in the formulation of limit states. This is a complex matter involving the factors of time, service life, degradation effects, modelling, probability analyses, limit states, costs and other phenomena. It has not yet been completely understood, albeit several notions in this context are contained in different codes and regulations, e.g.
