A novel machine learning model, eXtreme Gradient Boosting (XGBoost), was used for the purpose of evaluating the moment capacity of cold-formed steel (CFS) channel beams with …
This paper reports an experimental investigation, carried out at The University of Hong Kong, on the behaviour of cold-formed steel lipped channel beams affected by local …
The use of cold-formed steel (CFS) back-to-back channels as floor joists is increasing steadily, and such beams often include un-stiffened holes for installation of services, which …
Cold-formed steel (CFS) channel beams are an increasingly popular choice as load- carrying members in building structures. Such channel beams often include web holes for …
Aluminium alloy has recently become popular in New Zealand's construction sector as a sustainable building material. However, in roll-formed aluminium alloy (RFA) channel …
This paper describes an experimental and numerical investigation to study the flexural capacity of back-to-back gapped built-up cold-formed steel (CFS) channel sections under …
This paper investigates the structural behaviour of cold-formed steel (CFS) back-to-back (BTB) channel sections subjected to axial compression at elevated temperatures. The stress …
In cold-formed steel (CFS) structures, the application of back-to-back built-up channel beams is increasing steadily. The increasing demand of CFS sections as a cost-effective …
This paper describes a test campaign concerning the behaviour and strength of cold-formed steel (CFS) lipped channel (LC) beams experiencing local-distortional (LD) interaction made …
