Accurate prediction of dynamic properties of system is important to ensure the dynamic based design integrity of its member is not compromise. It will reduce or possibly eliminate the possibilities of further modifications in-situ of real system. On this account, this study investigates the modal parameters of the pre-stress sheet metals undergoing bending stresses which is commonly used in practice as structural members. In addressing this issue, three different shapes of sheet metals of similar thickness were studied i.e. straight plate, U-shaped and V-shaped plates. The natural frequencies of these configurations were determined experimentally using the Operational Modal Analysis (OMA). Numerical values were obtained using ANSYS software. Results of these shapes acquired experimentally and numerically were then compared and analyzed. Significant reduction in the eigenvalues of is observed on bent plates both experimentally and numerically as compared to flat plate.
