Abstract: This paper presents a series of tests on cold-formed steel plain (unstiffened) angle columns compressed between fixed ends. The test specimens were brake-pressed from high strength structural steel sheets. Tests were ...

Abstract: An experimental investigation of cold-formed steel lipped angle concentrically loaded compression members is presented in this paper. The angle specimens were tested between fixed-ended conditions at various column lengths. ...

Abstract: An experimental investigation was conducted with thin-sheet steel (TSS) double shear-bolted connections at elevated temperatures. The connection specimens were fabricated by TSS 0.42-mm G550 and 1.90-mm G450. The specimens ...

Abstract: This study aimed to investigate the buckling behavior of cold-formed steel built-up closed section members subjected to combined minor axis bending and compression. The channels were fabricated from zinc-coated steel sheets ...

Abstract: Built-up sections were used in a wide range of constructional steel applications. The investigation aims to develop suitable design rules for cold-formed steel doubly symmetric built-up open and closed sections with ...

Abstract: An experimental investigation of simply supported built-up section beams with different sectional configurations has been conducted under both four-point bending and three-point bending. Intermediate stiffeners were employed ...

Abstract: An experimental investigation of cold-formed stainless steel hollow sections subjected to web crippling is presented in this paper. Tests were conducted on square and rectangular hollow sections of austenitic stainless ...

Abstract: This paper presents an experimental investigation of cold-formed steel channels with complex stiffeners subjected to pure axial compression for fixed-ended columns. The complex stiffeners of the channel sections consist ...

Abstract: The paper presents design and numerical investigations into the strengths and behavior of cold-formed lipped channel columns using finite element analysis. A nonlinear finite element model is developed and verified against ...

Abstract: An experimental investigation into the column strength of cold-formed stainless steel rectangular hollow sections is described in this paper. The columns tested displayed four cross-section sizes and were compressed between ...
