The reassessment of existing structures leads to analyse the impact of local defects on the structural behaviour. This paper proposes a cracked beam finite element with a view to introducing the effect of large through‐cracks in the structural analysis for framed structures like jacket offshore platforms. The model parameters are identified for several joint typologies using 3D finite element results. Copyright © 2007 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
