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 …

In this study, an innovative replaceable fuse connection for beam members in moment
resisting steel frames was proposed. Steel angles are designed as fuse elements for energy …

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 study presents a novel machine-learning model using the eXtreme Gradient Boosting
(XGBoost) tool, for assessing the web crippling behaviour of perforated roll-formed …

This paper investigates the in-plane lateral behaviour and capacity of cold-formed steel
(CFS) stud wall panels which are sheathed with Oriented Strand Board (OSB). Detailed …

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 …

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 …

This study aims to present an empirical formulation to predict equivalent temperature for
steel and concrete components of the innovative concrete-filled cold-formed steel (CF-CFS) …

New product development is crucial to advance innovation in the cold-formed steel structural
industry. Design of cold-formed steel structures usually requires physical testing, but it may …

In current design standards, cold-formed steel (CFS) beam-column elements are generally
designed by considering fully warping free behaviour in their supports, which means the …
