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 …

This study carries out numerical and experimental investigation on shear connection
performance of flooring systems comprising of cold-formed steel joists and engineered …

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 …

This paper presents a new design procedure for considering the bracing effect of sheathing
boards that are attached to the cold-formed steel (CFS) structural members. The previous …

The cold-formed steel (CFS) wall frames need to be stiff-strong to inhibit the instability
failures. The current design specifications do not have a robust design method for sheathed …

The material and connection behaviour in sheathed cold-formed steel wall systems are
investigated in the present paper through experimentation. A total of 103 material and …
