Abstract
Abstract This paper presents a critical examination of some basic limit state functions that led to development of the invariant code format for reliability analysis. Proper methods of evaluating failure probabilities from these limit state functions are used to check failure probabilities estimated by reliability index methods, and the results show that failure probability for a limit state function that may assume different but seemingly equivalent forms is not always invariant as the invariant format would indicate.
