The structural behavior of cold-formed steel (CFS) built-up beams that are gaining interest in
the construction industry is investigated in this study. As per the current American Iron and …

Built-up sections are commonly used in cold-formed steel (CFS) structures. The built-up
sections are either welded or mechanically fastened based on the need and necessity …

The present study develops a novel type of active joint node-bolt fasten wedge (BFW) active
joints, aiming to investigate the load-bearing capacity of a BFW joint in a quantitative way …

This paper focuses on the mechanical properties of bolt-fastened wedge (BFW) joints
utilized in prestressed internal support under eccentric loading. The validated finite element …

Torsional buckling is a common mode of failure in highly slender Cold-formed Steel (CFS)
stud wall frames. The torsional buckling mode will induce pull-through in sheathings …

This paper presents an experimental investigation on sheathed cold-formed steel wall
panels subjected to out-of-plane loading. The objective is to determine the two-sided …

The bracing effect of Particle Cement Board (PCB) sheathing for the Cold-formed steel
(CFS) wall stud is explored in this study. Owing to the higher slenderness, the CFS wall stud …

Abstract Cold-Formed Steel (CFS) is considered as a sustainable material and CFS
members are becoming popular nowadays as primary or secondary load carrying structural …

This paper investigates the bracing effect of sheathing fastener connection on point-
symmetric shaped cold formed steel (CFS) studs through full-scale laboratory tests. The test …

An experimental study was conducted to explore the strength contribution of plywood
sheathing boards that are regularly used in the cold-formed steel (CFS) wall panel …
