- Additional information
- The suitability of the cold-formed steel frames subject to seismic loading was investigated in the context of different joints, column resistance, energy dissipation capacity, ductility and the mode of failure. The research is significant because it demonstrates that the effect of the bi-moment longitudinal stresses, often neglected in the design of built-up channel columns, must be accounted for the accurate prediction of the local buckling load. The research has demonstrated to the stakeholders the accuracy of the analysis method and proved the compliance of the joint, which are now implemented in over thousand buildings supplied each year.
