Typical thin-walled cold-formed steel (CFS) elements and connections used in portal frames
are not generally suitable for moment-resisting frames in high seismic regions due to their …

Typical cold-formed steel (CFS) moment-resisting connections generally have relatively low
ductility and energy dissipation capacity as a result of low local/distortional buckling …

The load transfer mechanism in cold-formed steel (CFS) bolted moment connections is
mainly through the bolt group in the web of beam elements, which may lead to relatively …

Cold-formed steel (CFS) sections can be designed in many configurations and, compared to
hot-rolled steel elements, can lead to more efficient and economic design solutions. While …

Cold-formed steel (CFS) portal frames are gaining increased popularity around the world.
The structural performance of these frames is to a large extent controlled by the CFS beam …

This paper presents an investigation into a friction-slip mechanism in bolted joints in cold-
formed steel (CFS) moment-resisting connections suitable for seismic areas. The aim is to …

This study aims to investigate the seismic performance of an innovative cold-formed steel
(CFS) moment-resisting frame experimentally and analytically. A half-scale CFS moment …

It has been a growing trend to use cold-formed steel (CFS) sections as primary structural
members in low to multi-story buildings due to their high strength-to-weight ratios, ease of …

This paper investigates the seismic performance of a single storey moment resisting cold-
formed steel (CFS) portal frame through cyclic testing. Six monotonic and six cyclic tests …

Seismic design provisions of Cold-Formed Steel–Special Bolted Moment Frames in the
proposed AISI Seismic Standard were developed on the basis that ductility capacity is …
