COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF THE RESULTS OF CALCULATION OF A THIN SHELL IN THE FORM OF CARVED SURFACE OF MONGE WITH AN APPLICATION OF MEMBRANE (MOMENTLESS) THEORY AND FINITEELEMENT METHOD

On the example of existing buildings,the tendency of integrationof thin-walled struc- tures in modern practice can be clearly retraced. The rapid development andthe use of spatial structures became possible due to the existing theories of the calculation, using of computers and computer programs. In this paper, the usage of amomentless theory and a finite element method on the example of a carved surface of Monge are considered, as well as a comparative analysis of theresults of calculation are presented
