Abstract
The literature survey shows the continuous changes which have taken place for gravity loads. These changes have led to a more efficient use of available resources at the same time with improved safety and serviceability. Present design loads appear to provide satisfactory structural response. However, more rigorous probabilistic analysis is needed as their use represents the direction research work is headed. Additional research will determine new ways that are practical for meeting the desired goals.
