The principles of circular economy (CE) were well defined long ago, but adapting it to the
construction sector is a long-winded and complicated task as several stakeholders are …

This study entails the development of a non-destructive prestressed strengthening solution
for steel beams using adhesively bonded memory-steel (also known as iron-based shape …

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 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 …

A comprehensive test program was performed to experimentally investigate the effect of
CFRP strengthening on the axial strength and stability of CFS plain angle short columns …

This paper presents experimental results of steel beams strengthened with low-density and
low-modulus CFRP fabrics, with the objective of,(i) checking the capability of the fabric type …

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 …

The objective of this work is to examine the bracing effect of sheathing boards in inhibiting
the instability failure modes of cold-formed steel (CFS) studs in the wall panel construction. A …

Cold-formed steel (CFS) in construction delivers cost effectiveness and design flexibility. The
instability failures of CFS Structural members significantly influences the failures of …

A four-point bending test was carried out to examine the feasibility of using cold-formed steel
(CFS) channel for retrofitting of open hot rolled steel (HRS) channels. The retrofitting …
