Abstract: Margin of safety maximal values for structural elements under bending are defined using simplified procedure, taking in consideration a nonlinear material behavior. The whole procedure is presented in detail. Also, completed calculation for some different types of elements and obtained results are shown.

Keywords: Margin of safety, Maximal values, Structural elements, Nonlinear material behavior,Bending.
