The paper presents the computation results for the Dubrovnik steel cable-stayed bridge with a total span of 474 m by using real wind action. Set of data was obtained by direct measurements of the wind direction and velocity, second values, acting on the structure at the end of its construction. The recently completed measurements of the second values of wind gusts at different elevations have made it possible to present the actual action of Bora wind. Safety of structure is described with the safety index β. The investigations were performed according to the EUROCODE recommendations and they represent the basis for the development of the Croatian codes in the field of the dynamic wind action upon the structure.
