Effect Of Bracing Stiffness On Buckling Strength Of Cold-Formed Steel Columns, Pratyoosh Gupta, George E. Blandford, S. T. Wang
Effect Of Bracing Stiffness On Buckling Strength Of Cold-Formed Steel Columns, Pratyoosh Gupta, George E. Blandford, S. T. Wang
CCFSS Proceedings of International Specialty Conference on Cold-Formed Steel Structures (1971 - 2018)
A three-dimensional second-order analysis is used to study the effect of brace stiffness on the buckling strength of cold-formed steel columns. The finite element formulation uses an iterative updated Lagrangian scheme to include the second-order geometric non-linear effects in the space frame element as well as the connection element used to model a brace. Lateral brace stiffness required to achieve full bracing for a two-dimensional column, and lateral and torsional brace stiffnesses required for a three-dimensional cold-formed steel column are studied. The strength requirement for various brace components, the effects of column initial imperfections, and the impact of varying warping …
Towards A Numerical Procedure For Composite Slab Assessment, Howard D. Wright, Milan Veljkovic
Towards A Numerical Procedure For Composite Slab Assessment, Howard D. Wright, Milan Veljkovic
CCFSS Proceedings of International Specialty Conference on Cold-Formed Steel Structures (1971 - 2018)
Composite slab design relies upon adequate shear bond resistance between the steel and concrete. This is achieved by friction between the materials and the mechanical interlock of embossments pressed in the steel. The behaviour of this shear bond resistance is complex and is obtainable only from model tests. This paper explores the potential for numerical modelling to provide the required design information.

Interaction Of Flange/Edge - Stiffened Cold Formed Steel C - Sections, Colin A. Rogers, R. M. Schuster
CCFSS Proceedings of International Specialty Conference on Cold-Formed Steel Structures (1971 - 2018)
A revision to the Canadian Standard (S136-94)[1] and the American Specification (AISI- 89)[2], in which the procedure to calculate the effective width of an edge-stiffened compressive flange is modified, has been proposed by Dinovitzer et al.[3]. The proposal involves a change of the equations for the flange plate buckling coefficients of Case II compressive elements, which eliminates a discontinuity in the effective width formulation. The modified local buckling procedure was compared with the current Canadian Cold Formed Steel Standard using a program of beam tests at the University of Waterloo[4] and data available in the literature[8,9, 10, 11,12]. Statistical results …
Geometric Imperfections And Residual Stresses For Use In The Analytical Modeling Of Cold-Formed Steel Members, Benjamin W. Schafer, Teoman Pekoz
Geometric Imperfections And Residual Stresses For Use In The Analytical Modeling Of Cold-Formed Steel Members, Benjamin W. Schafer, Teoman Pekoz
CCFSS Proceedings of International Specialty Conference on Cold-Formed Steel Structures (1971 - 2018)
Geometric imperfections and residual stresses influence the behavior and ultimate strength of cold-formed steel members. Advanced analytical models (i.e. nonlinear finite element models) must reflect this by including appropriate geometric imperfections and residual stresses. To date, little has been done to summarize the existing literature on these topics. As a result, no consensus exists for what magnitudes or distributions should be used when including geometric imperfections and residual stresses in the analysis, In this paper existing literature is reviewed and a new series of measurements carried out with the goal of providing basic guidelines for the use of geometric imperfections …
A New Aisi Cold-Formed Steel Design Manual, Richard C. Kaehler, Paul A. Seaburg
A New Aisi Cold-Formed Steel Design Manual, Richard C. Kaehler, Paul A. Seaburg
CCFSS Proceedings of International Specialty Conference on Cold-Formed Steel Structures (1971 - 2018)
The Specification Committee of the American Iron and Steel Institute is currently developing a new Cold Formed Steel Design Manual. The work is being done under contract with Computerized Structural Design with oversight provided by AISI Subcommittee 26 - Design Manual. This paper describes the purpose and contents of this Manual. It is expected the Manual will be published in conjunction with the new edition of the Specification for the Design of Cold-Formed Steel Structural Members early in 1997. The Manual will contain the combined versions of the Allowable Stress Design and Load and Resistance Factor Design Specifications in addition …
Golden Anniversary Of The Aisi Specification, Wei-Wen Yu, Don S. Wolford, Albert L. Johnson
Golden Anniversary Of The Aisi Specification, Wei-Wen Yu, Don S. Wolford, Albert L. Johnson
CCFSS Proceedings of International Specialty Conference on Cold-Formed Steel Structures (1971 - 2018)
The use of cold-formed steel members in building construction began in about the 1850's in the United States and Great Britain. However, such thin-walled steel members were not widely used for buildings until after 1946 When the first edition of the Specification for the Design of Light Gage Steel Structural Members was published by the American Iron and Steel Institute (AISI, 1946). This first design standard was based primarily on the research work sponsored by the Institute at Cornell University under the direction of Professor George Winter after 1939 (Winter, 1959a and 1959b). It was revised subsequently by the AISI …
The 1996 Aisi Specification, Roger L. Brockenbrough
The 1996 Aisi Specification, Roger L. Brockenbrough
CCFSS Proceedings of International Specialty Conference on Cold-Formed Steel Structures (1971 - 2018)
The first edition of the AISI specification was adopted in 1946. Thus, the new specification represents fifty years of progress in the formal structural application of cold-formed steel. The continued efforts of the Committee on Specifications and the sponsorship of the American Iron and Steel Institute have made this fifty years of progress in cold-formed steel a reality. The new specification combines ASD and LRFD provisions in a single document. This affords the design engineer the opportunity to become familiar with both methods and facilitates the use of whichever method is preferred. In addition, the new specification includes a number …
A Probabilistic Examination Of The Ultimate Strength Of Cold-Formed Steel Elements, Benjamin W. Schafer, Mircea Gigoriu, Teoman Pekoz
A Probabilistic Examination Of The Ultimate Strength Of Cold-Formed Steel Elements, Benjamin W. Schafer, Mircea Gigoriu, Teoman Pekoz
CCFSS Proceedings of International Specialty Conference on Cold-Formed Steel Structures (1971 - 2018)
This paper investigates the ultimate strength of cold-formed steel plates in uniform compression and pure bending with the goal of determining the statistical characteristics (mean and variance) of the ultimate strength. Plate thickness, longitudinal residual stress magnitude, and imperfection magnitude are considered as random variables. Based on existing data appropriate distributions are determined for these three random variables. Using ABAQUS for the strength prediction, two methods: Monte Carlo simulation and Taylor series approximation, are employed to determine statistical characteristics of the plates. The results are compared to the deterministic approach of the AISI Cold-Formed LRFD Specification.
Additional Design Considerations For Bolted Connections, Roger A. Laboube, Wei-Wen Yu
Additional Design Considerations For Bolted Connections, Roger A. Laboube, Wei-Wen Yu
CCFSS Proceedings of International Specialty Conference on Cold-Formed Steel Structures (1971 - 2018)
A multi-year study was conducted at the University of Missouri-Rolla which focused on such topics as deformation characteristics of bearing type connections; strength of bearing and tensile type failure modes of flat sheet connections; tensile strength of staggered bolt patterns in flat sheet connections; and tensile strength of bolted connections for angle and channel sections. The intent of this research was to verify the present design approach for bolted connections and to expand the design methodology to include additional limit states, in particular the effect of deformation of the bolt hole and the influence of shear lag in angle and …
Performance Of Self-Tapping Screws In Lap-Shear Metal-To-Metal Connections, Reynaud Serrette, Victor Lopez
Performance Of Self-Tapping Screws In Lap-Shear Metal-To-Metal Connections, Reynaud Serrette, Victor Lopez
CCFSS Proceedings of International Specialty Conference on Cold-Formed Steel Structures (1971 - 2018)
The basic design requirement for screws in light gauge steel construction is the strength of the screw in a given application (metal-to-metal, wood-to-metal, or metal-to-wood) based on the body diameter of the screw. This statement is clearly obvious from the current AISI screw specifications for lap shear metal-to-metal connections. Recent research has shown that the performance of a screw fastener may also depend on other features of the screw including the head and thread style, and the method of installation (stripped versus unstripped screws). The data presented in this paper address these issues for lap shear connections designed with No. …
Shear Behavior Of Self Drilling Screws Used In Low Ductility Steel, Randy L. Daudet, Roger A. Laboube
Shear Behavior Of Self Drilling Screws Used In Low Ductility Steel, Randy L. Daudet, Roger A. Laboube
CCFSS Proceedings of International Specialty Conference on Cold-Formed Steel Structures (1971 - 2018)
The results of 264 shear tests conducted on self drilling screws are presented. The tests conducted include single screws in single shear, two screws in single shear, and single screws in double shear. The performance and behavior of self drilling screws in low ductility steel are compared to the performance and behavior of screws in normal ductility steel. Results are compared to the 1986 AISI specification with 1989 addenda, and the recently approved AISI specification for self drilling screws which will be included in the next edition of the AISI code. Also, new equations are presented for the tilting/bearing limit …

Thin-walled cold-formed member critical load in the coupling point of overall/local buckling modes is defined, together with critical load erosion factor (ψ). A calibration method for (ψ) using an experimental database called DATACOST is presented.
Cold Formed Steel Flat Width Ratio Limits, D/T And DI/W, Colin A. Rogers, R. M. Schuster
Cold Formed Steel Flat Width Ratio Limits, D/T And DI/W, Colin A. Rogers, R. M. Schuster
CCFSS Proceedings of International Specialty Conference on Cold-Formed Steel Structures (1971 - 2018)
This paper reports the findings of an investigation of the flat width ratio limit for simple edge-stiffeners of channels in bending. Willis & Wallace concluded that the lip flat width ratio limit, d/t, should have a value of 14 based on a comparison of the 1980 and 1986 editions of the American Iron and Steel Institute (AISI) Cold Formed Steel Specification. This conclusion was made using the results of only three channel beam tests with various lip sizes, Case III flanges and locally unstable webs. The CAN/CSA-S136 Technical Committee adopted the recommendations of Willis & Wallace and included the lip …
Comparison Of The Distortional Buckling Method For Flexural Members With Tests, Colin A. Rogers, R. M. Schuster
Comparison Of The Distortional Buckling Method For Flexural Members With Tests, Colin A. Rogers, R. M. Schuster
CCFSS Proceedings of International Specialty Conference on Cold-Formed Steel Structures (1971 - 2018)
For thin-walled flexural members composed of certain geometric proportions and/or made of high-strength steel, a mode of buckling at half-wavelengths intermediate between local buckling and flexural-torsional or flexural buckling can occur. The mode is most common for edge (lip) stiffened members such as C and Z-sections, and involves rotation of the lip-flange component about the flange-web junction. This mode is commonly called distortional buckling. Presented in this paper is a design method for distortional buckling of flexural members recently submitted for ballot with the AISI Specification Committee for Cold-Formed Steel Structures. Currently, the North American Cold-Formed Steel Design Standards do …
Comparison Of Tests Of Purlins With And Without Cleats, Michael Celeban, Dan Popovic, Gregory J. Hancock
Comparison Of Tests Of Purlins With And Without Cleats, Michael Celeban, Dan Popovic, Gregory J. Hancock
CCFSS Proceedings of International Specialty Conference on Cold-Formed Steel Structures (1971 - 2018)
The paper describes a series of tests on Z-section purlins lapped over three spans and subject to wind uplift loading. The purlins were not attached to the rafters by cleats. Sheeting was screw-fastened to the purlins and a range of bridging (bracing) members was used to prevent lateral deflection and twisting. The results of the tests are compared with earlier tests with the same configurations but including cleats at the supports.
Finite Element Analysis Of Hollow Flange Beams With Web Stiffeners, P. Avery, Mahen Mahendran
Finite Element Analysis Of Hollow Flange Beams With Web Stiffeners, P. Avery, Mahen Mahendran
CCFSS Proceedings of International Specialty Conference on Cold-Formed Steel Structures (1971 - 2018)
A new cold-formed and resistance welded section known as the Hollow Flange Beam (HFB) has been developed recently in Australia. In contrast to the common lateral torsional buckling mode of I-beams, this unique section comprising two stiff triangular flanges and a slender web is susceptible to a lateral distortional buckling mode of failure involving lateral deflection, twist, and cross-section change due to web distortion. This lateral distortional buckling behavior has been shown to cause significant reduction of the available flexural capacity of HFBs. An investigation using finite element analyses and large scale experiments was carried out into the use of …
Design Models Of Continuous Sandwich Panels, Paavo Hassinen, Lassi Martikainen
Design Models Of Continuous Sandwich Panels, Paavo Hassinen, Lassi Martikainen
CCFSS Proceedings of International Specialty Conference on Cold-Formed Steel Structures (1971 - 2018)
Static behaviour and failure modes of single-span lightweight sandwich panels are well known in general and several design guidelines and recommendations have been published concerning the determination of the resistance values for the design. At intermediate supports continuous sandwich panels are loaded by high bending moments and transverse support reactions simultaneously, which leads to nonlinear interactions between the stresses caused by the bending moment arid support reaction. The interaction failure modes have not been introduced on acceptable level in the current recommendations. The paper presents experimental and analytical results concerning the static behaviour and strength of the intermediate support area …
Structural Detailing Of Openings In Sandwich Panels, Ton Toma, Wim Courage
Structural Detailing Of Openings In Sandwich Panels, Ton Toma, Wim Courage
CCFSS Proceedings of International Specialty Conference on Cold-Formed Steel Structures (1971 - 2018)
European Recommendations [1] exist which provide calculation rules to determine the strength and stiffness of sandwich panels composed of two metal faces with a foam in between. In case of openings in such panels (e.g. for windows) an influence will appear with regard to the stiffness and loadbearing capacity. At the institute TNO Building and Construction Research this item has been studied (numerical and experimental) which has resulted in simple design rules in addition to the before mentioned calculation rules for panels without openings. The program has been executed with financial support of the European Community for Coal and Steel …
Lower Cost Lightweight Cold-Formed Portal Frames, B. W. J. Van Rensburg, G. P. De Vos
Lower Cost Lightweight Cold-Formed Portal Frames, B. W. J. Van Rensburg, G. P. De Vos
CCFSS Proceedings of International Specialty Conference on Cold-Formed Steel Structures (1971 - 2018)
Southern Africa has a dire need for housing small industries and people, and concomitantly the creation of employment. It is common to use hot-rolled steel sections for industrial structures, which are pre-manufactured and then bolted together on site. In this paper an alternative structural concept for low-rise portals for light industries is proposed, whereby the total frame is made up of standard cold-formed sections which are cut and welded together on site. The cladding material is employed as an integral structural component through the principles of stressed skin diaphragm action. A short pile footing is proposed to provide a degree …
Non-Linear Buckling Analysis Of Thin-Walled Metal Columns, C. Jiang, J. Michael Davies
Non-Linear Buckling Analysis Of Thin-Walled Metal Columns, C. Jiang, J. Michael Davies
CCFSS Proceedings of International Specialty Conference on Cold-Formed Steel Structures (1971 - 2018)
Uniformly compressed cold-formed metal columns are susceptible to instability in a variety of modes. In the stability analysis of such a column, using any of the available numerical methods with the exception of the eigenvalue method, the perfect geometry of the column must be ' seeded' with an imperfection in order to cause it to collapse. If the member buckles in a global mode, it is easy to introduce an appropriate imperfection in form of a suitable displaced shape. However, it is more difficult to define the imperfections for the distortional and local buckling modes due to the unknown nature …

Structural Design Study On A Light - Gauge Steel Portal Frame With Cold-Formed Sigma Sections, Pentti Makelainen, Juhani Kankaanpaa
CCFSS Proceedings of International Specialty Conference on Cold-Formed Steel Structures (1971 - 2018)
Design study is conducted on a thin-gauge cold-formed steel portal frame with compound double (back-to-back) sigma sections in columns and rafters. Experimental study on the sem-irigid rafter-to-column connection behaviour is first carried out for two special bolted connection types based upon specific thin connection plates between the double sections. First connection plate studied was a compact corner plate bolted between double sigma sections of rafter and column end parts. Other connection plate type studied was composed of four together layered thin plates with the edges of two outer plates outwardly lipped at the free side of the corner plate. Connection …
Moment Rotation Behavior For Concrete Filled Shs Column To Composite Beam Connections, J. S. Lee, Young Bonb Kwon, K. S. Woo
Moment Rotation Behavior For Concrete Filled Shs Column To Composite Beam Connections, J. S. Lee, Young Bonb Kwon, K. S. Woo
CCFSS Proceedings of International Specialty Conference on Cold-Formed Steel Structures (1971 - 2018)
A series of connection tests were carried out to study the behavior of connections between concrete filled Square Hollow Section(SHS) columns and composite W-section beams. The test connections were four different semi-rigid types selected for application to multi -story building frames. The initial flexural rigidities were estimated by different theories and compared with the simple beam. Moment-roration relations were simulated using a finite element program and a simple power model was proposed to predict the moment-rotation behavior of connections.
Strength And Stiffness Calculation Procedures For Composite Slabs, Budi R. Widjaja, Samuel W. Easterling
Strength And Stiffness Calculation Procedures For Composite Slabs, Budi R. Widjaja, Samuel W. Easterling
CCFSS Proceedings of International Specialty Conference on Cold-Formed Steel Structures (1971 - 2018)
Two procedures for calculating the strength and stiffness of composite slabs based on a partial interaction model are introduced. The procedures rely on elemental test results for interfacial and end-anchorage behavior, and thus offer an alternate solution to the m and k method that relies heavily on full scale slab tests. Strength calculations made using the new procedures along with calculations from the Steel Deck Institute procedure are compared to a series of full size composite slab test results.

Strength Of Headed Shear Studs In Cold-Formed Steel Deck, John C. Lyons, Samuel W. Easterling, Thomas M. Murray
CCFSS Proceedings of International Specialty Conference on Cold-Formed Steel Structures (1971 - 2018)
Results from 57 push-out tests of headed shear studs in cold-formed steel deck are presented. The results are compared to predicted strengths using the American Institute of Steel Construction Load and Resistance Factor Design Specification. The results indicate that the AISC specification does not accurately predict the strength of the shear studs placed in steel deck.

Modeling Of Cold-Formed Purlins-Sheeting Systems, S. Kitipornchai, R. M. Lucas, F. G. A. Al-Bermani
CCFSS Proceedings of International Specialty Conference on Cold-Formed Steel Structures (1971 - 2018)
Purlin-sheeting systems used for roofs and walls commonly take the form of cold-formed channel or zed section purlins, screw-connected to corrugated sheeting. This paper presents two nonlinear elasto-plastic finite element models, capable of predicting the behaviour of purlin-sheeting systems without the need for either experimental input or over simplifying assumptions. The first model incorporates both the sheeting and the purlin while the second, a simplified version of the first model, includes only the purlin. Both models are able to account for cross-sectional distortion of the purlin, the flexural and membrane restraining effects of the sheeting, and failure of the purlin …

A brief description of the members used in these systems is provided. The National Association of Steel Framed Housing (NASH) promotes the use of steel in homes and provides educational material to assist builders, suppliers, teachers and students.
Steel - The Clear Cut Alternative, Richard Haws
Steel - The Clear Cut Alternative, Richard Haws
CCFSS Proceedings of International Specialty Conference on Cold-Formed Steel Structures (1971 - 2018)
The current use of cold-formed steel owes its success to efforts which started 50 years ago. In 1946 AISI published the first specification for the design of cold-formed (then known as light gage) steel structural members. The specification was the end product of a doctoral thesis by Dr. George Winter which was initiated in 1939. Since 1946 AISI has continually updated and modernized the AISI Specification for the Design of Cold-Formed Steel Structural Members. The 1956 manual was the first design specification to have a companion commentary. In 1991 AISI published the LRFD version of the Design of Cold-Formed Steel …
A Study On The Effect Of Cold Forming On The Yield Strength Of Stainless Steel Type 304 - Hardness Test Approach, M. Macdonald, J. Rhodes, M. Crawford, G. T. Taylor
A Study On The Effect Of Cold Forming On The Yield Strength Of Stainless Steel Type 304 - Hardness Test Approach, M. Macdonald, J. Rhodes, M. Crawford, G. T. Taylor
CCFSS Proceedings of International Specialty Conference on Cold-Formed Steel Structures (1971 - 2018)
This paper describes a preliininary experimental investigation of the effects of cold forming on the material properties of stainless steel comer sections. The background and theory behind the research is briefly reviewed and is followed by a description of hardness testing. Hardness testing is used to postulate values for the increase in yield strength around the comers. The experimental findings are presented and the postulated increases in yield strength are compared with those predicted by two existing theories, and by other experiments carried out by the authors. It is concluded that the linear relationships found between yield strength and hardness …
An Explicit Approach To Design Of Stainless Steel Columns, Jacques Rondal, Kim J. R. Rasmussen
An Explicit Approach To Design Of Stainless Steel Columns, Jacques Rondal, Kim J. R. Rasmussen
CCFSS Proceedings of International Specialty Conference on Cold-Formed Steel Structures (1971 - 2018)
The paper describes a design procedure for stainless steel columns failing by flexural buckling. In the approach, the stress strain-curve is assumed to be expressed as a Ramberg-Osgood curve, defined in terms of the initial modulus (Eâ‚€), the 0.2% proof stress (σ₀.â‚‚) and the parameter n. It is shown that the column curve can be described in terms of the Ramberg-Osgood parameters by adopting a Perry-curve as basic strength curve and expressing the imperfection paranleter in terms of Eâ‚€, σ₀.â‚‚ and n. By using a Perry-curve, the design procedure is explicit. This contrasts the iterative approach described in the ASCE-LRFD …

Burst Strength Of Type 304l Stainless Steel Tubes Subjected To Internal Pressure And External Forces, J. Pretorius, P. Van Der Merwe, G. J. Van Den Berg
CCFSS Proceedings of International Specialty Conference on Cold-Formed Steel Structures (1971 - 2018)
The findings of an investigation concerning the burst strength of cold-formed Type 304L stainless steel tubes subjected to internal pressure and static external forces are reported in this study. The use of cold-formed stainless steel longitudinally welded tube in pressurised processes in industry are limited due to the belief that seamless tubes have superior resistance to internal pressure. The primary objective of this study was to experimentally and theoretically describe the failure criteria for thin-walled longitudinally welded Type 304L stainless steel tubes subjected to internal pressure and static external point loads and torsion loads. Due to the diversity of the …
