Abstract
Street and railway bridges are constantly subject to various damages: decay of anticorrosion protection, steel corrosion, fatigue damages due to materal ageing and to dynamic loads. Because of the age of the steel bridges in Slovenia and because of the increase in load and traffic, the question is put forward how safe bridges realy are and how long will they be safe. Based on the determined or assumed damages and on the use of the theory of fracture mechanics, methods for the assessment of the state and the life time of steel bridges will be elaborated.
