This paper presents the analysis of the spatial prismatic sloped overlay of irregular shape with a spherical surface upon. This bearing steel structure is under a dead‐load of a framed glass packet and under snow. Mathematical model of prism and spheroid geometry is developed. Construction geometry of a rectangularly profiled pipe and snow pressure is modelled in finite elements, using special software is developed by authors. This software is designed for the evaluation of glass structures and is easily adopted for a data exchange with commercial software. Computer aided design of the overlay and structure stress‐deformation analysis is realized by ANSYS.
