heal.abstract	This paper discusses the implementation of three-dimensional solid elements, when performing finite element analysis of historical structures and monuments, with masonry bearing elements. The use of surface (shell) elements, often, does not allow peculiarities in reliable model simulation of masonry structures whereas solid elements offer preciseness and flexibility during simulation. Comparative analysis of shell and solid element models takes place, three-dimensional elasticity considerations, as applied through solids, are evaluated and conclusions are derived regarding the reliability and accuracy of the method. © 2005 Civil-Comp Press.	en
