A nonlinear finite element analysis using ANSYS is applied to the vertical mechanical behaviors of three specimens of reinforced concrete transferring joints with inchned columns, which are used in high - rise buildings. A comparison is made between the analytical achievements and the test results, including the mechanical behaviors, load - transferring path and the failure modes, and a good agreement is obtained. The reliability of the software ANSYS in the nonlinear analysis of such reinforced concrete structures is verified and developed.
