The semi-plane-symmetric static general solution generated by semi-plane-symmetric non-null electromagnetic fields is obtained. We prove that there are only three Killing vector fields ?/?x, ?/?y and ?/?t in this kind of space-times. The space-time singularity is also investigated. It is shown that all these space-times are geodesically incomplete, and all incomplete geodesies correspond to scalar polynomial curvature singularities.
