1. SCOPE 1.1 These methods cover procedures and definitions for the mechanical testing of joints formed by connecting a cold-formed steel member to a cold-formed or hot-rolled steel member with one or more mechanical fasteners. The purpose of these procedures is the determination of the load capacities of the joints so formed. 1.2 The term "mechanical fastener" or "fastener" shall be defined as any mechanical device used in the connection of two or more members, inclusive of such devices as bolts, tapping screws and rivets but exclusive of welds and adhesives. 1.3 The following mechanical tests are described: Sections Pull-Over …

Local And Overall Buckling Of Cold-Formed Compression Members, John T. Dewolf, George Winter, Teoman Peköz
Local And Overall Buckling Of Cold-Formed Compression Members, John T. Dewolf, George Winter, Teoman Peköz
CCFSS Library (1939 - present)
The objective of this investigation has been to develop information on the interaction between local plate buckling and overall column buckling in cold-formed compression members with a view toward possible improvement of those provisions in the American Iron and Steel Institute Specification for the Design or Cold-Formed Steel Structural Members concerned with column design. Two types of compression members were tested: two channels connected flange-to-flange to form a box section, and two channels connected back-to-back to form an I-section. For both of these shapes, the stress at which local buckling occurs and the postbuckling strength were varied by varying the …
Buckling Of Diaphragm-Braced Columns Of Unsymmetrical Sections And Application To Wall Studs Design, Amir Simaan, George Winter, Teoman Peköz
Buckling Of Diaphragm-Braced Columns Of Unsymmetrical Sections And Application To Wall Studs Design, Amir Simaan, George Winter, Teoman Peköz
CCFSS Library (1939 - present)
Lateral bracing has a significant effect on increasing the buckling load of compression members. In the case of wall stud construction, such bracing is provided by wallboards directly attached to the stud along its length and results in increasing the load carrying capacity significantly. The objective of this investigation is to study the behavior of singly symmetric sections braced by shear diaphragms and to apply the theoretical findings verified by experimental results to the design of wall studs. In the present investigation the shear rigidity as well as the rotational restraint of the diaphragm are considered. Using an energy approach, …

Diaphragm Braced Thin-Walled Open Sections And Design Of Wall Studs, Amir Simaan, Teoman Peköz
Diaphragm Braced Thin-Walled Open Sections And Design Of Wall Studs, Amir Simaan, Teoman Peköz
CCFSS Library (1939 - present)
INTRODUCTION Cold-formed steel wall studs generally are I, Z or channel shaped with or without stiffening lips, and with webs perpendicular to the plane of the wall. Because of their configuration and dimensions, these sections are quite unstable by themselves. However, the stability and, hence, load-carrying capacity of such studs are increased substantially once they are connected to the wallboard material. The main function of the wallboard is that of enclosure, but it serves also as a bracing system for the studs. Gypsum board, vegetable fiberboard, tempered board or plywood are commonly used wallboard materials. Such boards are connected to …

One of the purposes of the Council is to maintain a forum where problems related to the design and behavior of columns and other compression elements in metal structures can be presented for evaluation and discussion. The Annual Technical Session provides opportunity to carry out this function. The 1973 Annual Technical Session was held on May 2 and 3 at the Los Angeles Hilton Hotel in Los Angeles, California. Sixty persons attended the Session and thirty-three papers were delivered. A panel discussion on "Frame Stability Under Seismic Loading" was held in the evening of May 2, 1973. Panelists were E. …
Tests On Field Welded Puddle And Fillet Weld Connections, R. S. Yarnell, Teoman Peköz
Tests On Field Welded Puddle And Fillet Weld Connections, R. S. Yarnell, Teoman Peköz
CCFSS Library (1939 - present)
INTRODUCTION This report contains the results of tests on 122 field welded connections. Most of the specimens are approximately the same as those that were shop welded previously and tested. The results of tests on shop welded specimens are given in Ref. 2. Those field welded specimens that do not correspond to the shop welded specimens are indicated in Table lA. Except as noted, all notations, variables, weld configurations and procedures are identical with those in Ref. 2. All specimens were tested in a hydraulic test machine under monotonically increasing slowly applied tensile force. This report differs from Ref. 2 …
