A specially shaped corrugated steel shear wall (S-CSSW) system was proposed for the
application of steel residential buildings. The proposed shear wall system featured a main …

Cold-formed steel (CFS) is generally used in the construction industry for low-rise and multi-
story buildings. In such structures, CFS walls are the main load-carrying elements. The …

In recent earthquakes, structures near seismic sources have suffered severe damage due to
near-fault ground motions. When compared with ordinary ground motions, these ground …

Cold-formed steel (CFS) structures exhibit considerable superiority in efficient and
environmentally friendly building construction in high-seismic regions. The objective of this …

The damage indices are widely used to evaluate the performance level and damage state of
structural elements in buildings subjected to seismic actions. Despite the widespread …

Cracking damage of the sheathing wallboards in screw connections is the typical failure
mode of cold formed steel (CFS) structures under seismic effects, which limits the shear …

Timber, one of the oldest structural materials, is an essential material in the construction of
traditional structures due to its undeniable advantages. However, wood is sensitive to …

This paper proposes damage index–based limit-state criteria for seismic design of midrise
cold-formed steel (CFS) buildings instead of the drift-based ones, and the Park-Ang damage …

CFS structures are classified as structures with low ductility. Due to this, they are not
recommended for medium to high seismic areas. The paper presents the results of a …

A built-up type specially shaped corrugated steel shear wall (BS-CSSW) that can be
concealed within enclosure walls was proposed for applications in residential buildings …
