At present considerable effort of architects and civil engineers is aimed at re-use of industrial buildings in order to preserve their cultural and heritage value and to avoid wasting energy. However, heritage structures usually do not fulfil requirements of present codes of practice. Simplified conservative procedures of design of new structures given in present codes may lead to expensive repairs and losses of the cultural and heritage value when applied to existing structures. In accordance with EN 1990 (2002) and ISO 13822 (2003), probabilistic procedure is proposed to improve the reliability assessment of industrial heritage buildings. The procedure is applied in the reliability assessment of a steel member.
