This thesis has been executed in cooperation with Abetong which is a leading company in the prefabrication of concrete structures. For a prefabricated concrete building the design engineer must take into consideration the connections between the concrete elements in order to make sure that the building will possess a sufficient structural stability. Therefore the structural engineer might have to re-calculate the original structure that often has been designed as an on site-built building. The purpose of this thesis is to examine the forces between elements related to different models to see if the structural engineer has to make a re-design. To get results for this study we have used FEM-design 3D Structure. The results of forces from the program were compared with Abetongs standard forces of point connections and recess lists and showed that the structural engineer can use the original calculation up to around five stories when a prefabricated shall be erected.
