The concept of cold‐formed light steel framing construction has been widespread after
understanding its structural characteristics with massive research works over the years …

Structural behaviour of cold-formed steel (CFS) built-up closed cross-section columns
subjected to local, global, and local–global interactive failure is investigated. The objective is …

This paper presents an improved design approach based on the direct strength method
(DSM) in American Iron and Steel Institute (AISI) design specification S100 for cold-formed …

The concept of cold-formed light steel (CFS) framing construction has been widespread after
understanding its structural behavior and characteristics through massive research works …

This paper presents an experimental and numerical investigation into cold-formed steel
portal frame moment-resisting joints, having bolts in both the web and outer flange. The …

A structural arrangement of a portal frame that is easy to fabricate and assemble is
developed. The rafter and column members are formed from single cold-formed channel …

In cold-formed steel portal framing systems that use bolted moment connections, formed
through brackets, for the eaves and apex joints, it is well-known that the joints are semi-rigid …

The structural behavior of Cold-formed Steel (CFS) built-up closed cross-section columns is
investigated. The CFS built-up Closed Cross-Section columns are designed in various …

An investigation of the behaviour of base connections, fabricated from cold-formed channels
and hot-rolled angle cleats, is presented in this paper. This investigation is part of an …

Cold-formed steel structures are increasingly attractive due to their benefits of good
mechanical performance and constructional advantages. However, this type of construction …
