Considering the complexity of the problem of stress – strain state and stability of structural systems, nonlinear theory is applied in this paper. The subject of the paper is to perform the stiffness matrix and geometric stiffness matrix, and to define the problem of bifurcation stability. Solving the problem of bifurcation stability presents...

This paper presents a monopitch timber truss roof, through the stages of its design, static calculation and execution. It is a structure that originally was not carried out in accordance with project documentation, and the realization of its restructuring failed to make the final form. It all lead to constructing a new roof structure. The intention...

A non‐linear elastic‐plastic Generalised Beam Theory (GBT) is formulated and used to investigate the buckling behaviour of aluminium and stainless steel thin‐walled members. The analysis consists of calculation cross‐section (local) and member (global) deformations and has been shown to be a very efficient tool for analyzing local and global stabil...

This paper treats the principle of static testing on braced girder of a sport hall built by the primary school "Srbija" in Pale. During testing simulated snow load was performed on the roof and was applied on a major steel braced (three‐band) roof grider, with span L = 23 m. The following measurements and observations were performed: measurement of...
