Seismic performance and most unfavorable and favorable Load distributions of steel storage rack: an optimization approach
(2020-10-20)In the current rack seismic design, the load distribution is generally considered to be placed uniformly on the rack, but the reality usually differ. In this paper, the objective is to identify the most unfavorable and ... -
Simplification of the Direct Strength Method of Design for Cold-Formed Channels with Holes in Shear
(2020-10-20)A Direct Strength Method (DSM) of design for cold-formed steel channels with holes in shear has been developed previously using a Vierendeel model. In particular, the model is applied to square, circular, rectangular and ... -
A State-of-the-Art Review of Testing by Analysis in Cold-Formed Steel Design
(2020-10-20)New product development is crucial to allow innovation in the cold-formed steel structural industry. However, the required physical testing of new components and assemblies are often a cost barrier which prevents implementation ... -
Stiffness Characterization of Single Lap Shear Screw Fastened Connections Using Finite Element Modeling
(2020-10-20)Cold-formed steel (CFS) connections are commonly fastened using self-tapping self-drilling screws. Though screw manufacturers typically provide the strength of their screws, the stiffness of these connections is typically ... -
Strength of Steel-to-Steel Screw Connections - Update to Provisions
(2020-10-20)The objective of this research was to review the existing provisions of the AISI S100-16 North American Specification for Cold-Formed Steel Structural Members [1], for screw connections loaded in shear and tension (but not ... -
Structural Performance of Cold Formed Section Beam to Column bolted Connections
(2020-10-20)The semi-rigid nature of the cold formed section beam to column connections is primarily due to the distortion, tearing of column section plates, and distortion of beams end sections. Stability of such structures usually ... -
Structure Performance of Cold-formed Steel columns reinforced by Channel Sleeve under Axial and Eccentric compression
(2020-10-20)Due to the weak torsional stiffness of cold-formed thin-walled channel members, distortional buckling behavior maybe controlled the ultimate load-capacity under certain conditions. Therefore, a new section reinforced by ... -
Study on Section Capacity of Stainless Steel Lipped-C Beam-Columns
(2020-10-20)This paper aims to explore the buckling behavior and the section capacity of cold-formed stainless steel lipped-C stub beam-columns under combined axial compression and uniaxial bending. A total of 24 stub columns were ... -
Study on Sectional-Global Interaction Buckling of Stainless Steel Lipped-C Beam-Columns
(2020-10-20)As part of a research series concerning sectional and member capacity of cold-formed stainless steel beam-columns, this paper presents some experimental and simulated results on the interaction buckling behavior of stainless ... -
Sub-Zero Temperature Behaviour of Cold-formed steel Members
(2020-10-20)Cold-formed steel (CFS) industry has opportunities to expand the use of CFS in sub-zero temperature environments, such as Arctic and Antarctic regions, large scale refrigeration facilities and off-shore structures. Although ... -
System analysis of nonsymmetric cold-formed steel cross sections members
(2020-10-20)Cold-formed steel components exist in a variety of structural systems. Wall systems and floor systems are often composed of channel members, and metal building systems often consist of channels or Z-section purlins to ... -
Topology Optimization of Cold-Formed Steel Deck Diaphragms with Irregularities
(2020-10-20)The objective of this paper is to explore the optimization of building roofs composed of bare cold-formed steel deck profiles when subjected to lateral demands such that the diaphragm response dominates the roof design ... -
Torsion Analysis for Cold-Formed Steel Members Using Flexural Analogies
(2020-10-20)The design of cold-formed steel members must consider the impact of torsional loads due to transverse load eccentricity. Open cross-sections are particularly susceptible to significant twisting and high warping stresses. ...
