With advancements in manufacturing technology, steel members can be innovatively
fabricated in nonsymmetric section shapes and tapered along the length to bring certain …

This paper presents a series of full-scale tests on long-span cold-formed steel single C-
section portal frames subjected to gravity load and combined gravity and lateral load. The …

A large number of existing reinforced concrete solid slab bridges in the Netherlands are
found to be insufficient for shear upon assessment. However, research has shown additional …

This paper demonstrates the concept of adaptive repurposing of a portion of a
decommissioned Clipper C96 wind turbine blade as a pole in a power transmission line …

An accurate structural analysis is a fundamental requirement for modern design.
Nevertheless, this is often difficult for systems comprised of thin-walled members, mostly …

The main objective of this paper is to validate a finite-element (FE) modeling protocol to
simulate thin-walled members for static and dynamic analyses. Arbitrary-shaped cross …

The objective of this paper is to investigate the moment-rotation behavior of floor-to-wall
connections used in ledger-framed cold-formed steel building construction with full-scale …

This paper presents a comprehensive approach for the design of planar structural steel
members and framing systems using a direct computational buckling analysis configured …

This paper introduces a new version of the open-source educational software, LESM (Linear
Elements Structure Model), developed in MATLAB for structural analysis of one-dimensional …

Abstract Advanced High Strength Steel (AHSS) is the next generation of steel for cold-
formed steel (CFS) construction. With the superior strength of AHSS, the design space of …
