Review on Cold-Formed Steel Connections [PDF]

open access: yesThe Scientific World Journal, 2014
The concept of cold-formed light steel framing construction has been widespread after understanding its structural characteristics with massive research works over the years. Connection serves as one of the important elements for light steel framing in order to achieve its structural stability.

Experimental investigation on cold-formed steel beams under pure bending [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
This paper presents the flexural behaviour of cold-formed double lipped channels beams under pure bending action. Two channel sections are bolted back-to-back to form an I-shape structural beam member. A series of six experiment tests were carried out on

Structural behaviour of optimized cold‐formed steel beams [PDF]

open access: yesSteel Construction, 2020
AbstractCold‐formed steel (CFS) members have been used significantly in light‐gauge steel buildings due to their inherent advantages. Optimizing these CFS members in order to gain enhanced loadbearing capacities will result in economical and efficient building solutions.

Plastic mechanisms for thin-walled cold-formed steel members in eccentric compression. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The Eurocode 3 concerning thin-walled steel members divides members subjected to compression into four classes, considering their ductility. The representatives of the class C4 are short bars, for which the load-capacity corresponds to the maximum ...

Effect of high-pressure rolling followed by laser processing on mechanical properties, microstructure and residual stress distribution in multi-pass welds of 304L stainless steel [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Multi-pass fusion welding by a filler material (wire) is normally carried out to join thick steel sections used in most engineering applications. Multiple thermal cycles from a multi-pass weld resulted in a variable distribution of residual stress field ...

Effect of uncertainty in localized imperfection on the ultimate compressive strength of cold-formed stainless steel hollow sections [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Stainless steel has excellent corrosion resistance properties, considerable long-term durability, and good mechanical strength. Hollow sections are a versatile and efficient form for construction applications.
