Origami is an old art of paper folding. From mechanical point of view origami can be defined as a folded structure. In the present paper a comparative study of four origami inspired folded plate structures is presented. Longitudinal, facet, egg-box and Miura-ori origami modules are used for the analysis. The models are based on six-parameter shell theory with the use of the finite element method. Convergence analysis of each module is presented. Numerical study of roof folded plates in oriented to the comparison of maximal displacements and stresses in the structures. Some parametric analysis is also presented
