Abstract
Calibration of partial coefficients for a class of structures where no code exists is considered. The partial coefficients are determined such that the difference between the reliability for the different structures in the class considered and a target reliability level is minimized. Code calibration on a decision theoretical basis is discussed. Results from code calibration for rubble mound breakwater designs are shown.
