Abstract
In the former study on the numerical simulation for the partial beam with the ball-joint connection, the ability of the numerical modeling was proven by the present authors. By using the similar method, the estimative ability of the present simulation method for the practical latticed dome is investigated through comparative analyses between numerical analyses and experiments. The numerical analyses are executed with parameters, looseness, initial compressive force at the connectors and initial deflection at noticeable node of the dome. Through comparison between the experiments and the numerical simulations, the structural behaviours of the tested steel single layered latticed domes with ball-joint connections are also precisely discussed
