The numerical analysis is based on the finite element method implemented in CASTEM 2000. This program uses the constitutive elastoplastic perfect model for the steel, the Drucker-Prager model for the concrete and the Newton-Raphson for the solution of non-linear systems. This work concentrates on the determination of equilibrium curves to the beams and force-strain curves to the columns. The numeric responses are confronted with experimental results found in the literature in order to check the reliability of the numerical analyses. © Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya (España).133-144spaFEMNon-linear analysisR/C beamsR/C columnsArtigo2-s2.0-77954436554
