In this talk, a number of current and new proposals for the design of steel cross-sections and members against local and global instability will be discussed. The focus will be put on the scientific methodology used for their development: on the analytical background, on the employed experimental and numerical methods and their results, on the concepts behind the formulation of the design rules for stability, and their probabilistic validation.
