The construction and building sectors are currently responsible globally for a significant
share of the total energy consumption and energy-related carbon dioxide emissions. The …

The use of cold-formed members in structural engineering is increasing because of their
considerable structural and environmental advantages, such as low weight, ease and speed …

This paper presents the structural behavior of doubly-symmetric built-up cold-formed steel
(CFS) columns that fail in local-global (flexural-torsional) interactive buckling modes. The …

Structural behavior of Cold-formed Steel (CFS) face-to-face connected built-up closed cross-
section columns is investigated in the present study. The CFS built-up columns are designed …

An experimental investigation into the behavior of cold-formed steel (CFS) built-up column
assembly compressed between fixed ends is presented in this paper. The built-up column …

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 numerical investigation on cold-formed steel built-up open section members under
combined compression and minor axis bending is described in this paper. Through …

Cold-formed steel (CFS) sections have become popular in construction due to several
advantages over structural steel. However, research on the performance of galvanized iron …

This paper presents an improved design approach based on the direct strength method
(DSM) in American Iron and Steel Institute (AISI) design specification S100 for cold-formed …

Innovative concrete-filled cold-formed steel (CF-CFS) built-up column sections subjected to
axial compression and elevated temperatures were previously investigated, assessing their …
