Abstract An imperfection sensitivity analysis of cold-formed steel members in compression is presented. The analysis is based on Koiter’s approach and Monte Carlo simulation. If the modes interaction is correctly accounted, than the limit load and the erosion of critical buckling load can be easily evaluated. Thousands of imperfection can be analysed with very low computational cost and an effective statistical evaluation of limit performance can be carried out. The analysis is done on pallet rack uprights in compression, based on an intensive experimental study carried out at the Politehnica University of Timisoara.

Batten plates can play a significant role in reducing the bearing capacity of the entire component and preventing the upward warpage deformation in the opening section. The specific number of batten plates should be calculated for the open cold-formed thin-walled steel structure. By theoretical analysis, this study develops the flexural-torsional buckling formula for the open lipped-channel section cold-formed thin-walled axially compressed members with batten plates. The calculating results show that, according to the configuration rule with 80 iy space between batten plates along the opening direction in the open thin-walled steel members, the warpage deformation will be effectively prevented in the opening direction. Besides, the bearing capacity of the entire member will be increased. The proposed calculation methods can actively complement the existing code.

The paper presents fundamental information about experimental-theoretical research oriented to determinate the resistance of thin-walled compressed steel members. The investigated members had closed cross-sections made from homogeneous materials. The theoretical analysis in this research is oriented to determinate the resistance of mentioned members according to relevant standards, while the experimental investigation is to verify the theoretical results and to investigate the behavior of mentioned members during the loading process.
