Cold-formed steel (CFS) framed shear walls with steel sheathing are promising lateral-force-
resisting members of mid-rise buildings in seismic regions. Previous studies have …

Cold-formed steel (CFS) storage rack structures are extensively used in various industries to
store products in safe and secure warehouses before distribution to the market. Thin-walled …

The use of cold-formed steel (CFS) systems has significantly increased in the past few
decades, especially in the construction of low to mid-rise buildings. Compared to hot-rolled …

Hybrid cold-formed steel (HCFS) structures are new structural systems in the light steel
construction industry offering new possibilities, in particular with regard to the applications in …

This paper systematically investigates the various uncertainties involved in seismic analysis
of cold-formed steel (CFS) structures, and aims to provide information for seismic risk …

Cold-formed steel (CFS) framing shear walls has been widely used as the lateral force
resisting system of light-weight steel structures. While the behaviors of walls have been …

Cold-formed steels (CFS) or light gauge steels (LGS) are steel sections created through
processes without heat application, such as roll forming or press-braking. In the past few …

Hybrid shear walls composed of cold-formed steel (CFS) open sections and square hollow
sections (SHS) have recently attracted attention for lightweight midrise buildings, as a result …

Abstract The North American specifications for the design of cold-formed steel (CFS) framed
shear walls (CFS-SSSW) with steel sheet sheathing provides tabulated values and …

This paper describes an extensive numerical analysis and parametric studies conducted to
evaluate the performance of shear connectors as a key component in the design of …
