Cold-formed steel (CFS) systems have seen an increased application in the past few
decades, especially in the construction of low-to mid-rise buildings. CFS members offer …

Lightweight steel framed systems (LWS) are innovative construction systems whose
application has been steadily increasing over the years thanks to the huge benefits in terms …

The adoption of a constructive system in seismic area is related to the clarity and direct
applicability of the reference technical code. The use of Cold-Formed Steel (CFS) products …

The inelastic performance of sixteen 2.44 m× 2.44 m cold-formed steel strap braced walls
was evaluated experimentally. The performance was affected by the holddown detail, which …

The concept of cold‐formed light steel framing construction has been widespread after
understanding its structural characteristics with massive research works over the years …

Screw connections have an important role in the performance of Light Steel Framing (LSF)
construction systems. In this paper, the behaviour LSF panels using screw connections …

This paper presents a new demountable and modular light-gauge steel framed (DMLSF)
wallboard, which is composed of two C-shaped steel frames, one insulation frame fabricated …

The rotation capacity of cold-formed steel (CFS) beams has been evaluated through
experimental investigation. Studies on different structural levels have been performed. At the …

The development of thin-walled cold-formed steel (CFS) sections as energy dissipative
elements for seismic moment-resisting multi-storey frame buildings is presented through FE …

This paper presents an investigation on the potential use of cold-formed steel sections (CFS
sections) in moment-resisting frames (MRFs) for seismic applications. The main limitation of …
