The paper presents the numerical simulations results of net section failure in tensioned angles. Angles are made of structural steel with nominal grade S235. Simulation takes into account ductile fracture initiation, by application of GursonTvergaard-Needleman (GTN) material model. Parametrical analysis of ultimate resistance was carried out. The finite elements analyses were conducted by ABAQUS computer program. Shear lag effect in considered joint was observed, as a non uniform tensile stress distribution in angles in the vicinity of a connection. Stress concentration areas and stress concentration factors have been predicted, both in elastic and ultimate behaviour of joint. Especially change of non-uniform stress distribution in net cross-section was observed, during increase of loading, until the ultimate resistance was reached.
