The idea of using dynamic response for the defects indication is not frequent for civil engineering structures. Both static and dynamic loads induce cracks which may influence their response. It could be then desirable to monitor the state of the structure during its entire life of exploitation. One mean of such monitoring is by measurements of structural eigenparameters and analysing them by the methods of modal analysis. The paper deals with such a diagnosis of the unusual structure characterized by it low bending rigidity and by the geometrical form stabilized by its own weight only.
