Experimental Investigation Of Steel Stud Shear Wall Diaphragms, Cynthia S. Mccreless, Thomas S. Tarpy Jr. Jun 1978

Experimental Investigation Of Steel Stud Shear Wall Diaphragms, Cynthia S. Mccreless, Thomas S. Tarpy Jr.

CCFSS Proceedings of International Specialty Conference on Cold-Formed Steel Structures (1971 - 2018)

This paper presents the results of an experimental full scale test program for determining design information for shear wall diaphragms constructed of steel studs and gypsum wallboard with different aspect ratios. Wall construction used is representative of the type of construction commonly used for interior wall partitions. Testing is performed in accordance with- ASTM E 564 - 76.

Webs For Cold-Formed Steel Flexural Members Structural Behavior Of Beam Webs Subjected To Bending Stress, Wei-Wen Yu, Roger A. Laboube Jun 1978

Webs For Cold-Formed Steel Flexural Members Structural Behavior Of Beam Webs Subjected To Bending Stress, Wei-Wen Yu, Roger A. Laboube

CCFSS Library (1939 - present)

Since 1973, a research project on webs for cold-formed steel flexural members has been conducted at the University of Missouri-Rolla under the sponsorship of American Iron and Steel Institute. This study deals with the structural behavior of beam webs subjected to bending stress, shear stress, combined bending and shear, web crippling and the effect of bending on web crippling load. In addition, it includes a study of beam webs reinforced by either transverse or longitudinal stiffeners. This report presents the research findings on unreinforced beam webs subjected to bending stress. The results for the study of beam webs subjected to …


Tests On Puddle Weld Connections, William Mcguire, J. W. Struble, Teoman Peköz Apr 1978

Tests On Puddle Weld Connections, William Mcguire, J. W. Struble, Teoman Peköz

CCFSS Library (1939 - present)

PREFACE This non-interpretive report contains the results of 90 tests on circular and oblong puddle weld connections. The connections involved test specimens constructed of flat steel plates and thin connecting sheets of varying thicknesses (10 to 28 gage) with the welds to be studied forning the bond between them. Testing consisted of tensile loading to ultimate failure. This work was carried out under contract with the Engineering Division of the American Iron and Steel Institute.


Strength Of Arc-Spot Weld In Sheet Steel Construction, Ching Fung Jan 1978

Strength Of Arc-Spot Weld In Sheet Steel Construction, Ching Fung

American Iron and Steel Institute (AISI) Specifications, Standards, Manuals and Research Reports (1946 - present)

The weld used by the steel deck erectors to anchor steel decking to structural steel framing is commonly known as "Puddle Weld". It is formed by arc-welding with stick electrodes to "melt" through the deck, resulting in puddle of molten steel durinlj the welding operation. Hence, the weld is commonly referred to in the trade as "Puddle Weld". Since the inception of this research projE:ct, this type of weld has been given a new technical name -the "Arc-Spot Feld" to reflect the actual welding process and the formation of the weld.

Fences with more wire and posts are not necessarily stronger.

Design using high tensile wire can save on materials and reduce costs.


Web Crippling Strength And A Combination Of Bending And Web Crippling Of Cold-Formed Steel Beams, Nipon Hetrakul Jan 1978

Web Crippling Strength And A Combination Of Bending And Web Crippling Of Cold-Formed Steel Beams, Nipon Hetrakul

Doctoral Dissertations

"The web crippling strength of cold-formed steel beams was investigated experimentally. In this investigation, due consideration was given to the possible influence of bending moment and shear force on the web-crippling loads.

For the subject of web crippling strength, the study involved the testing of 140 built-up beams having single unreinforced webs and 152 I-beams having double webs. In addition, 66 beam tests were conducted for the case of combined bending moment, shear and web crippling.

The experimental results obtained from the beam tests conducted at the University of Missouri-Rolla and the early tests performed previously at Cornell University were …
