Experimental Investigation Of Optimized Cold-Formed Steel Compression Members, D. J. Klingshirn, E. A. Sumner, N. A. Rahman
CCFSS Proceedings of International Specialty Conference on Cold-Formed Steel Structures (1971 - 2018)
In the past, standard C - shaped metal studs have been the only option for designers and contractors when selecting a cross section for load bearing compression members. T he sigma shaped section has recently emerged as an alternative to the C - section. The sigma shaped section is very similar to the C - shape, with the exception of having an intermediate web return and complex stiffeners. The experimental results of concentric axial compression tests of fifty - eight sigma shaped members are reported. Specimen s were tested at various lengths to force global, distortional, and local buckling failure …

CCFSS Proceedings of International Specialty Conference on Cold-Formed Steel Structures (1971 - 2018)
High-strength cold-formed thin-walled steel sections have been widely used in the recent several years. However, distortional buckli ng or interaction between it and local buckling can occur for high strength cold-formed thin- walled steel members. This paper desc ribes a series of compression tests performed on lipped channel section columns with V-shape intermediate stiffener in the web and flanges fabricated from cold-formed high strength steel of thickness 0.48 and 0.6mm with nominal yield stress 550MPa. The lipped channel sections were tested to failure with both ends of the columns fixed. The test results of 16 specimens show that the local …

CCFSS Proceedings of International Specialty Conference on Cold-Formed Steel Structures (1971 - 2018)
According to section D1.2 of AISI S100-2007 for compression members composed of two sections in contact whose buckling mode involves shear forces in the connectors, a reduction must be made, KL r ⁄ must be replaced by ሺ KL r ⁄ሻ ୫ . This new modified slenderness ratio takes into account the connection weld spacing and the minimum radius of gyration of an individual shape in the built-up member. Under the provisions of section D1.2 a reduction in load capacity must be made for built-up welded box members, which are the subject of this study. An experimental investigation on 48 …
Theoretical Analysis Of Cold-Formed Steel Battened Double Angle Members Under Compression, W. F. Maia, J. Munaiar Neto, M. Malite
Theoretical Analysis Of Cold-Formed Steel Battened Double Angle Members Under Compression, W. F. Maia, J. Munaiar Neto, M. Malite
CCFSS Proceedings of International Specialty Conference on Cold-Formed Steel Structures (1971 - 2018)
In Brazil, battened double angle system is one of the systems most used in light truss, however, there are not any specific studies on its behavior, resulting in the fact that the standard procedures do not provide subsidies for the design of this section. Moreover, cold-formed steel si mple angles under compression, mostly with slender legs, have an interesting structural behavior compared to other cold-formed steel shapes. Two critical modes are observed in the elastic stability analysis: (i) global flexural mode in the case of longer members and (ii) a coincident local-plate/global flexural-torsional mode, which is critical for shorter members. …

Direct Strength Design Of Cold-Formed C-Sections For Shear, Cao Hung Pham, Gregory J. Hancock
CCFSS Proceedings of International Specialty Conference on Cold-Formed Steel Structures (1971 - 2018)
The Direct Strength Method (DSM) rece ntly included in the North American Specification and Australian/New Zealand Standard AS/NZS 4600:2005 gives design rules for compression and bending. No rules are presente d at this stage for shear. Two series of tests on C-section can be used to develop and calibrate rules for design in shear. These are the University of Missouri Rolla tests of the 1970’s and recent tests on high strength C-sections at the University of Sydney. Both series of tests use a similar test rig altho ugh different levels of tension field action have been observed. Two features research …
Direct Strength Design Of Cold-Formed C-Sections In Combined Bending And Shear, Cao Hung Pham, Gregory J. Hancock
Direct Strength Design Of Cold-Formed C-Sections In Combined Bending And Shear, Cao Hung Pham, Gregory J. Hancock
CCFSS Proceedings of International Specialty Conference on Cold-Formed Steel Structures (1971 - 2018)
The paper describes a research program including tests on both plain C- and SupaCee ® purlin sections in combined bending and shear, and bending only. The high strength SupaCee ® profile steel sections contain additional return lips and web stiffeners which enhance the bending and shear capacity of the sections. They are used widely in Austra lia as purlins in roof and wall systems. The tests were performed at the University of Sydney with and without straps on the flange and thus allowed distortional buckling in the latter case. Design methods for these sections are normally specified in the Australian/New …

On The Direct Strength Design Of Continuous Cold-Formed Steel Beams, Cilmar Basaglia, Dinar Camotim
CCFSS Proceedings of International Specialty Conference on Cold-Formed Steel Structures (1971 - 2018)
The work reported in this paper concerns an ongoing investigation aimed at developing an efficient methodology to design continuous cold-formed steel beams failing in modes that combine local, distortional and global features. At this stage, it is intended to assess how accurately can the load-carrying capacity of lipped channel continuous (two and three-span) beams subjected to non-uniform bending be predicted by means of the current Direct Strength Method (DSM) design curves. “Exact” ultimate strength values yielded by geometrically and materially non-linear shell finite element analyses are compared with estimates provided by the DSM equations and, on the basis of this …

Experimental Evaluation Of A Vehicular Access Door Subjected To Hurricane Force Wind Pressures, Tian Gao, Christopher D. Moen
CCFSS Proceedings of International Specialty Conference on Cold-Formed Steel Structures (1971 - 2018)
This paper describes an experimental study of a rolling sheet door under uniform positive and negative pressure, i.e. wind pushing the door into the building and wind suction pulling the door out of the building. Rolling sheet vehicular access doors are a commonly provided feature in metal building systems. The edges of the door slide freely during regular usage in tracks connected to cold-formed steel jambs. During an extreme wind event, the door engages the jambs with wind locks distributed along both vertical edges of the door to prevent excessive out-of-plane deformation. The goal of the study was to measure …

Frame Analysis And Design Of Industrial Cold-Formed Steel Racks, Teoman Pekoz, Ali Karakaplan, Ali Koç
CCFSS Proceedings of International Specialty Conference on Cold-Formed Steel Structures (1971 - 2018)
Industrial cold-formed steel racks have semi-rigid joints between the columns and beams. Frame analysis of such structures call for special considerations that are studied in this paper. The current design approach uses a linear idealization of the moment-rotation relation relationship based on an empirically decided secant to the nonlinear moment rotation curve. This study presents a refined analytical approach to the analysis such frames using the state-of-art finite elemen t based nonlinear analysis program LARSA 4D. Parametric studies are carri ed out to obtain an accurate design approach for usin g computer programs that treat linear moment-rotation relationships.

Evaluation Of The Flexural Strength Of Cold-Formed Steel Studs With Embossed Flanges, K. B. Reynolds, S. F. Stephens, Roger A. Laboube
CCFSS Proceedings of International Specialty Conference on Cold-Formed Steel Structures (1971 - 2018)
New advances and improvements in the manufacture of cold-formed steel shapes are continually being made. One such advancement in the manufacturing of steel studs is flange embossing, a technique used to facilitate the installation of drywall screws into the stud flange. Currently, embossed flanges are not specifically addressed in the North American Specification for the Design of Cold-Formed Steel Structural Members (AISI S100), thereby drawing into question the use of current design equations from being used to calculate member properties for an embossed stud. A limited experimental investigation was undertaken to determine if light flange embossing affects the nominal flexural …

Innovative Damage Control Systems Using Replaceable Energy Dissipating Steel Fuses For Cold-Formed Steel Structures, Fuminobu Ozaki, Yoshimichi Kawai, Hiroshi Tanaka, Tadayoshi Okada, Ryoichi Kanno
CCFSS Proceedings of International Specialty Conference on Cold-Formed Steel Structures (1971 - 2018)
This paper describes the development of innovative seismic technologies for cold-formed steel structures; a rocking steel shear wall system with replaceable energy dissipating steel fuses for low rise housing units. In this system, the fuses are placed at the base of a folded-steel sheet wall connecting an anchor bolt and the steel sheet wall. It is designed so that most of the earthquake energy can be dissipated by plastic deformation of the fuse elements, while the shear wall remains intact and resists vertical and horizontal forces caused by large earthquakes. As expected in seismic events, the fuses at the base …

Shear Behaviors Of Light-Gauge Composite Walls Under Monotonic And Cyclic Loading, Yuangqi Li, Fei Liu, Zuyan Shen, Xingyou Yao
CCFSS Proceedings of International Specialty Conference on Cold-Formed Steel Structures (1971 - 2018)
Shear properties of cold-formed thin-walled steel composite walls are af- fected by many factors, including the section of light-gauge studs, the space of self-drilling screws, the panel on both sides of wall, the distribution of hold down device, etc, which makes it is difficult to estimate the shear strength. In this paper, twelve Q345 light-gauge composite wall specimens with a dimension of 2400mm wide and 3000mm high were designed for shear capacity test. Two kinds of panel combination in the specimens were considered, one is gypsum board on one side and OSB board on another side, the other is gypsum …

Foundations For Dynamic Loads, Vijay K. Puri, Shamsher Prakash
Civil, Architectural and Environmental Engineering Faculty Research & Creative Works
Design of foundations in earthquake prone areas needs special considerations. Shallow foundations may experience a reduction in bearing capacity and increase in settlement and tilt due to seismic loading. the reduction in bearing capacity depends on the nature and type of soil and ground acceleration parameters. in the case of piles, the soil-pile behavior under earthquake loading is generally nonlinear. the nonlinearity must be accounted for by defining soil-pile stiffness in terms of strain dependent soil modulus. a comparison of observed and predicted pile behavior under dynamic loads has attracted the attention of several investigators. the lateral dynamic pile response …

Low Viscosity Pore Fluid To Manufacture Transparent Soil, Honghua Zhao, Louis Ge, Ronaldo Luna
Low Viscosity Pore Fluid To Manufacture Transparent Soil, Honghua Zhao, Louis Ge, Ronaldo Luna
Civil, Architectural and Environmental Engineering Faculty Research & Creative Works
Transparent soil has been investigated for its potential as a substitute research media for natural soil. the mechanism for manufacturing the transparent soil is through adding an appropriate pore fluid to silica gel particles with the same refractive index. Two types of high viscosity pore fluids were identified by Iskander in 1994. However, because of the high viscosity of these two pore fluids, air was easily entrapped, which made the manufacture of a large mass of transparent soil difficult. in addition, the identified pore fluids caused serious membrane deterioration during triaxial laboratory testing. This research presented herein is an experimental …
Viscosity Effects In Vibratory Mobilization Of Residual Oil, Igor A. Beresnev, Wen Deng
Viscosity Effects In Vibratory Mobilization Of Residual Oil, Igor A. Beresnev, Wen Deng
Civil, Architectural and Environmental Engineering Faculty Research & Creative Works
The last decade has seen clarifications of the underlying capillary physics behind stimulation of oil production by seismic waves and vibrations. Computational studies have prevailed, however, and no viscous hydrodynamic theory of the phenomenon has been proposed. For a body of oil entrapped in a pore channel, viscosity effects are naturally incorporated through a model of two-phase core-annular flow. These effects are significant at the postmobilization stage, when the resistance of capillary forces is overcome and viscosity becomes the only force resisting an oil ganglion's motion. A viscous equation of motion follows, and computational fluid dynamics (CFD) establishes the limits …

Civil, Architectural and Environmental Engineering Faculty Research & Creative Works
A research project was initiated to develop a nonferrous hybrid reinforcement system for concrete bridge decks by using continuous fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) rebars and discrete randomly distributed polypropylene fibers. This hybrid system may eliminate problems related to the corrosion of steel reinforcement while providing requisite strength, stiffness, and desired ductility, which are shortcomings of FRP reinforcing system in plain concrete. This article presents the results of a part of this research program, i.e., the bond behaviors of this hybrid reinforcing system under monotonic and fatigue loading. Test results indicate that the addition of polypropylene fibers does not increase the ultimate …
