Purpose. Influence on the strain-stress state of discretization of finite element model in the numerical analysis of non-circular outline tunnels is explored in the article. Methodology. For achievement of the put purpose, authors developed three finite element models of callote part at building of two-line railway tunnel. In each of models in a programmatic complex «Lira» was a concrete method of discretization area of cooperation with the temporal fastening. After creation of models, their numerical analysis with the detailed research of his results was conducted. Findings. The values of deformations and tensions of finite element models on horizontal and vertical axes, and also maximal values of moments and longitudinal forces in the temporal support are got. The comparative analysis of the got values is conducted. The graphs of conformities to the law of the indicated results from the features of discretization of two models are built. The third finite element model with the radial laying out of knots in the area of co-operation of the temporal fastening with the surrounding ground array is explored. Originality. It is set that at the numerical analysis of SSS of tunnel support of non-circular outline his results substantially depend on a form, sizes and configuration of the applied finite elements, from the sizes of calculation area of the ground massif, and also from the terms of his fixing (maximum terms). Practical value. The features of discretization and necessary sizes of calculation area of the ground massif at the design of the system are certain «support – ground massif », which provide sufficient exactness of calculation of parameters of the strain-stress state of support.
