Dear Milan, without seeing your model and at least a sketch of what you are modelling, trying to guess the source of the difference would be very hard. Please follow ATENA Troubleshooting, 2.2.18 My analysis results do not match the experiment/expectations. How can I improve my model?, and if you can not solve it, Troubleshooting, 2.1.1.

load carrying capacity of deck slab

sir,
I have prepared a model of deck slab by taking the default values of concrete material. I applied 700 KN load (as a patch load). After the analysis it fails at 80 KN load .The analysis does not show any error but the load carrying capacity of deck slab is very less. I have also checked the same model for different material property of concrete as per my requirement for this material the slab fails at 190 KN.
what will be the reason behind this?
