ABSTRACT: In the paper, the finite shell-beam model for geometrically nonlinear analysis of thin-walled space structures with open cross-section has been proposed. The standard discretization using beam thin-walled elements is connected with the space discretization of the frame joints. The case of special construction of joints, where complete warping transmission is ensured, has also been considered. Examples confirmed the effectiveness of the proposed FEM analysis.
