This paper contains overview of use of aluminum in building construction, specifically in connections of trust elements. This paper also contains the properties of aluminum alloys, setup of testing, advantages and no advantages under the cyclic loads. The used properties parameters during the testing are compared with the parameters given by the manufacturer, the standards of the European Aluminum Association and Eurocode 9. Testing of the models was performed on a hydraulic press (pulsator), Amsler''.The behaviour of join was focused in long period during the testing to analyze the failure mode and to compare with dynamic factor using in analytical method using during the experiment. This concept was reasonly accepted such dynamic coefficient in the diagonal D1, such trust element in value γD = 1,6. European Aluminium Association still doing research on getting the dynamic coefficients of fatigue for aluminum alloys and this research will present the contribution in this regard.

INTRODUCTION The increasing use of engineering materials in different types of loading requires that the materials have good mechanical properties in these conditions. Fatigue is one of the principle damage mechanisms or materials operating under loading conditions. During the cyclic
