Abstract: The primary difference in fatigue performance between cold-formed steel and hot-rolled steel stems from cold work strengthening. Therefore, this study focuses on the influence of prestraining on the high-cycle fatigue ...

Abstract: The paper presents experimental and numerical investigation of cold-formed steel (CFS)–framed walls sheathed with corrugated steel sheets. The new wall technology is considered as an alternative shear wall configuration ...

Abstract: Cold-formed steel shear wall with corrugated sheet steel sheathing is a newly proposed lateral force resisting system from recent research work. The advantages of noncombustibility, high shear strength and high shear ...
