This paper describes the principles of Component Based Finite Element Modelling (CBFEM) and the system response quantity and application features for design of prequalified joints for seismic applications. The elements are analysed by geometrically and materially non-linear analysis with imperfections (GMNIA). The proper behaviour of components, e.g. of bolts, anchor bolts, welds etc., is treated by introducing components representing its behaviour in term of initial stiffness, ultimate resistance and deformation capacity. To show this process a contribution is prepared, which summarises the history of achievements of FEA application in structural connections. Contribution shows the currents trends in advanced modelling of connection components and differences of the research oriented and design-oriented models. Both have their roles in advanced analyses.
