Various solutions of laminated plates by the finite element method are analysed. An efficient solution of skew (or rectangular) laminated plates with small effect of σ z and ϵ z stress and strain components is developed. It can be used with an arbitrary number of layer elements (sub‐elements) in different plate elements. Some remarks to the possible modification of solution are presented. Numerical examples with a short discussion and conclusions complete the paper.
