The subject of this paper the practical example of the steel lattice structure was used. Specifically, the joint consisting of H profile bottom chord and a RHS (Rectangular Hollow Section) brace members has been elected. This particular joint has an exceptional feature which is a deviation from the geometric conditions required by Eurocode. The aim is to create a numerical model that will adequately reflect the actual behavior of this type of joint as well as comparison of such behavior with that expected on the basis of assessment according to standardized formulas.
