Cold‐formed steel structures around the world

Steel Construction, 2011
AbstractThe objective of this paper is to provide a brief review of recent (over approximately the last five years) advances in the application, analysis and design of cold‐formed steel structures. Attention here is focused on load‐bearing cold‐formed steel structures; as opposed to secondary systems, curtain walls, etc.

Advances in Analysis and Design of Cold-Formed Steel Structures

Advances in Structural Engineering, 2008
This paper summarizes a number of recent experimental and numerical investigations into the structural behaviour of cold-formed steel structures with bolted connections conducted by the authors, and all of them focus on the efficient use of bolted moment connections between cold-formed steel sections.

Cold-formed steel structures

Journal of Constructional Steel Research, 2003
Abstract Cold-formed steel structures are steel structural products that are made by bending flat sheets of steel at ambient temperature into shapes which will support more than the flat sheets themselves. They have been produced for more than a century since the first flat sheets of steel were produced by the steel mills.

Special Issue on Cold-Formed Steel Structures

Journal of Structural Engineering, 2013
Because of the recent increase and diversity in commercial activity dealing with the usage of cold-formed steel structures in the construction industry, the research community workingwith this type of structure has been faced with new challenges. This has fostered a fairly large number of considerable advances in structural engineering topics related ...

Seismic analysis of sheathing-braced cold-formed steel structures

Engineering Structures, 2009
Abstract The seismic behavior of sheathed cold-formed steel (SCFS) structures is characterized by the lateral response of shear walls. Basically, if cold-formed steel (CFS) structures are designed according to the “sheathing-design” methodology, then the seismic behavior of shear walls is strongly influenced by the sheathing-to-frame connections ...

Advanced Connection Techniques for Cold-Formed Steel Structures

Journal of Structural Engineering, 1997
Cold-formed steel structures are used extensively in buildings. The use of structural frames and trusses fabricated from cold-formed steel sections is increasing. A key element in the manufacturing of such structures is the nature of the connection between sections. Many conventional connection techniques have some disadvantages.

Structural modeling of cold-formed steel portal frames

Structures, 2015
Abstract The paper describes the modeling of pitched roof cold-formed steel portal frames with slender cross-sections. Two types of finite element models are introduced: a shell finite element model and a modified beam finite element model. The shell element model involves explicit modeling of each structural member and accounts for the semi-rigid ...
