Abstract
The article presents experimental research and numerical analysis of a building partition in frame construction. The subject of the analysis were sections of the building partition consisting of cold-bent steel profiles and plasterboard cladding. The experiment was carried out using a four-point bending test and recording a continuous load-displacement curve until failure. Next, a computational model based on the finite element method was developed to simulate the experiment. The results from the experimental tests were then compared with that obtained from the numerical analysis. The validation of the numerical model demonstrated a high level of agreement in terms of load-displacement characteristics. The use of numerical analyses provides an alternative to time-consuming experimental tests for estimating displacements of building partitions in frame construction
