The construction and building sectors are currently responsible globally for a significant
share of the total energy consumption and energy-related carbon dioxide emissions. The …

The use of cold-formed members in structural engineering is increasing because of their
considerable structural and environmental advantages, such as low weight, ease and speed …

Built-up box sections are becoming increasingly popular for column members in cold-formed
steel (CFS) construction; uses of such sections include CFS trusses, space frames, and …

Face-to-face built-up cold-formed steel channel sections are becoming increasingly popular
for column members in cold-formed steel structures; its applications include cold-formed …

Cold-formed steel (CFS) back-to-back channels are becoming a popular choice for use in
load-carrying members in building structures. These built-up channels often include web …

This paper presents the structural behavior of doubly-symmetric built-up cold-formed steel
(CFS) columns that fail in local-global (flexural-torsional) interactive buckling modes. The …

In cold-formed steel structures, such as trusses and portal frames, the use of back-to-back
gapped built-up cold-formed steel channel-sections for column members are becoming …

The use of aluminium alloy channel sections is becoming popular in lightweight structures,
especially for pillars of curtain wall systems and brace and chord members in roof trusses. In …

Structural behavior of Cold-formed Steel (CFS) face-to-face connected built-up closed cross-
section columns is investigated in the present study. The CFS built-up columns are designed …

This paper describes an experimental and numerical investigation to study the flexural
capacity of back-to-back gapped built-up cold-formed steel (CFS) channel sections under …
