The subject of this paper is to determine the load-bearing capacity of the truss-type CHS (circular hollow section) joint which is beyond the scope of use of the EN 1993-1-8 and thus standardized formulas for calculations of joint's strength cannot be applied. Assessment of that joint is performed by using the numerical modeling in ANSYS program and the analytical method recommended in the CIDECT (Comite International pour le Developpement et l'Etude de la Construction Tubulaire) publication. The results from both methods are then compared. This paper contains recommendations for the creation of the FEM model and for calculation of load-bearing capacity of the CHS joint.
