An Exploratory Study On The Behavior Of Cold-Formed Steel Wall Studs, Yaochun Zhang, Teoman Peköz

CCFSS Library (1939 - present)

GENERAL Cold-formed steel wall studs are widely used in the U. S. and Canada. The 1980 A.I.S.I Specification (Ref. 1) contains provisions for the design of such wall studs based primarily on the research conducted at Cornell University (Refs. 2 and 3). This research involved theoretical and experimental studies on wall studs subjected axial loads only. The Specification provisions on the case of combined axial and lateral loading were derived intuitively and were made intentionally conservative. The excessive conservatism in the provisions for the combined loading case prevents using wall studs as economically as possible. The primary objective of the …

Seismic Design For Buildings, Department Of The Army, The Navy, And The Air Force

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

This updated manual with revised seismic design provisions governs the design and construction of Army, Navy, and Air Force facilities and supersedes the April 1973 issue. Basic criteria are stated herein with augmentations and clarifications of the criteria. Also, commentary and design examples are included to provide comprehensive applications and guidelines for the seismic-resistant design of facilities. The organization of the manual has been revised to present the topics in a more orderly manner. The dynamic analysis approach for seismic design is not covered but its use is not precluded in this manual.

The basic criteria cited are the "Recommended …

One of the purposes of the the of Council is to maintain a forum where the the of Council is to maintain a forum where the structural stability aspects of metal andcomposite metal and concrete structures and and their components can be presented for evaluation, and pertinent structural research problems proposed for investigation. The Annual Technical Session provides an opportunity to carry out this function.

Experimental Determination Of Post-Buckling Performance Of Steel Angles, Rupasiri Purasinghe

Dissertations and Theses

An experimental testing program was conducted to determine the compression member performance in post-buckling region. These results are compared with an analytical computer program developed by Portland State University under Bonneville Power Administration Contract 79-80BP 24005. The paper presents the sensitivity of the performance of single angle compression members to various parameters such as length to radius of gyration ratio, eccentricity, end conditions and yield stress. The effect of local buckling on long member performance is also documented.

Web Crippling And Combined Web Crippling And Bending Of Steel Decks, Wei-Wen Yu

CCFSS Library (1939 - present)

INTRODUCTION A. General During the period of October 1968 through September 1980, the 1968 Edition of the AISI Specification was used for the design of steel deck webs that could withstand web crippling and combined web crippling and bending. (1) The design formulas used to prevent web crippling were developed primarily on the basis of tests conducted in the 1940's and 1950's at Cornell University. (2-4) Recently, new types of cold-formed steel sections have been developed and used in building construction. The use of unusual geometric configurations has complicated the design of such members. In order to develop new design …

Behavior Of C- And Z-Purlins Under Wind Uplift, Parviz Soroushian, Teoman Peköz

CCFSS Library (1939 - present)

INTRODUCTION Cold-formed steel lipped channel (C-) and Z-purlins are used widely in the roofs of metal buildings. They are easy and economical to fabricate and erect. However these sections are weak in the lateral direction and in torsion. In order to use their full bending capacity in the strong direction, they must be braced in the lateral direction and against twisting. Roof panels which are connected to the purlins do provide to some extent such bracing effect by virtue of their shear rigidity and resistance to local bending at the connections. Wind uplift is an important design condition for roof …

Steel Deck Institute Diaphragm Design Manual First Edition, Larry D. Luttrell

Steel Deck Institute (SDI) Specifications and Manuals (1939 - present)

The Major Units Laboratory at West Virginia University has been involved in full-scale diaphragm studies for the past fifteen years. The work has covered tests on a wide range of deck panel types, metal building wall systems, panels with insulating concrete fill, and plywood assemblies, all used as diaphragms, and under static, cyclic, and dynamic loading. Connection performance, critical to diaphragm behavior, has been evaluated through an extensive test program covering arc-spot (puddle) welds, different types of screws, and power driven pins. These have established fastener strength limits and have been especially important for defining fastener flexibility factors.

Fire Protection Through Modern Day Building Codes, D. F. Boring, James C. Spence, Walter G. Wells

CCFSS Library (1939 - present)

In this edition, fire protection regulations are not included and requirements of model codes and recommendations of code writing organizations are cited in the text. Much progress has been made in building construction techniques and in material development since the publication of the First Edition in 1944. While this Fifth Edition reflects that progress, it adheres to its original purpose to help develop construction standards for safeguarding life and property from fire.
