The topic of this paper is the description of influence of boundary conditions to natural frequencies and other dynamic parameters of lightweight prestressed pedestrian bridges. Due to current level of computer technology and capabilities of computational system ANSYS is it possible to compile one computational model for both static and dynamic analysis of structures. However, the preparation of one model for both analysis may bring difficulties. These problems are connected with level of idealization and they are caused by differences in solution methods. The paper aims to describe influence of level of prestressing to global stiffness because it is significant feature occurring in solution of natural shapes. The paper also presents frequently used simplifications of boundary conditions representing foundations of structure. The paper provide a brief description of their influence to dynamic parameters. All obtained numerical results are compared and confronted with in-situ experimental measurements that were performed on bridges in Czech Republic.
