Cold-formed steel box-shaped section has the special features in both its mass center and moment center unification as double symmetry section and its outstanding advantage in moment and torsion rigidity. This paper presents a new kind of cold-formed steel box-shaped component welding sections, that is flanges opposite welding box-shaped component section DS. The mechanical properties such as buckling modes, load carrying capacity, rigidity, ductility and correlation curves of new section members which are subjected to axial compression, flexure, combined compression and bending have been analyzed by using nonlinear finite element method. The consumed steel quantities of per unit load carrying capacity between new section members and the same section dimensions of cold-formed C-section members have been compared systematically, too. Some conclusions can be drawn from above work that the DS section members have some superior properties, such as higher load carrying capacity and section modulus especially subjected to compression load, sufficient section stiffener and the sub-element local buckling hard to happen and so on. They are particularly suitable to withstand axial compressive loads, but also suitable to withstand the bending moment and bending loads. The consumed steel quantities are as almost 50% as the same dimension C-section members. The DS section members can go deep into the experimental study as to be used in the practical engineering.

The hollow flange beam (HFB) is a unique cold-formed steel section developed in Australia for use as a flexural member. This paper presents two kinds of new cold-formed flange-closed welding sections named HF1 and HF2 according to different section component and parameters of HFB. Nonlinear finite element method has been adopted to investigate the mechanical properties such as buckling mode, deformation process, rigidity, ductility and correlation curve of two kinds of new section members which being subjected to axial compression, flexure, combined compression and bending. Some conclusions can be drawn from above work that the new sections have some superiority properties, such as higher load carrying capacity and section modulus, sufficient section stiffener and the sub element local buckling hard to happen and so on. Being subjected to flexure and also being subjected to compression, combined compression and bending are suitable for the mechanical properties. The new cold-formed flange-closed welding section members can be applied to the experiment investigation deeply so as to be used in the practical engineering.

Authors of article analysed influence of variability of yield strength over cross-section of hot rolled steel member to its load-carrying capacity. In calculation models, the yield strength is usually taken as constant. But yield strength of a steel hot-rolled beam is generally a random quantity. Not only the whole beam but also its parts have slightly different material characteristics. According to the results of more accurate measurements, the statistical characteristics of the material taken from various cross-section points (e.g. from a web and a flange) are, however, more or less different. This variation is described by one dimensional random field. The load-carrying capacity of the beam IPE300 under bending moment at its ends with the lateral buckling influence included is analysed, nondimensional slenderness according to EC3 is λ¯ = 0.6. For this relatively low slender beam the influence of the yield strength on the load-carrying capacity is large. Also the influence of all the other imperfections as accurately as possible, the load-carrying capacity was determined by geometrically and materially nonlinear solution of very accurate FEM model by the ANSYS programme.

Cold formed steel differ from hot rolled steel by its lesser thickness and weight. The cold formed steel applicable in roof purlin, pipe racks and wall panels etc. Due its lesser wall thickness the cold formed steel member subjected to buckling. The enhancement of load carrying capacity of the cold formed steel member can be achieved by external strengthening of CFRP. In this study cold formed channel members connected back to back to form I shaped cross section using screws. These built up beam members were 300mm, 400mm and 500mm in length with 100mm screw spacing and edge distance of 50mm were chosen for testing. CFRP fabric cut according to length, width of built up beams and wrapped outer surface of beam using epoxy resin. Experiments were carried out in two sets firstly plain built up beams and secondly CFRP wrapped beams. The test results shows that increased load carrying capacity and reduction in deflection due to CFRP strengthening. Experimental results were compared with AISI standards which are in good agreement. Experimental results shows that CFRP strengthening is economic and reliable.

Effect Of Moisture

The effect of moisture content on mechanical properties of corner furniture joints was evaluated for when different joining methods and materials were used. Results included statistical processing of the measured and calculated data and evaluation of the effect of selected factors on mechanical properties of joints caused by using mechanical fasteners and glue. The load-carrying capacity and stiffness of corner joints were investigated in two environments, humid and dry, with standard conditions for temperature and pressure, i.e., dry environment had a temperature of 23 °C ± 2 °C and relative humidity of 45% ± 5%, and the humid environment had a temperature of 23 °C ± 2 °C and relative humidity of 90% ± 5%. The two types of materials used were particleboard (PB) with a thickness of 12 mm and artificial stone (plastic) with a thickness of 12 mm. Both materials were tested individually as well as their combination. Epoxy and polyurethane (PUR) adhesives were used for the glued dowel joints. When the same materials were bonded, maximum load carrying capacity was achieved with PUR adhesive, material combination of plastic-plastic, and moisture content of 90%. The epoxy adhesive was most suitable for bonding materials with different properties.

Axially Loaded

Twelve PVC tubed short concrete columns and four columns without PVC tube confined were tested under axial load to investigate mechanical properties of axially loaded PVC tubed short concrete columns . The principal influencing factors such as concrete strength, loading condition and ratio of height to diameter were studied. Test results indicated that strength and deformation performance of core concrete increased as a result of the confinement of PVC tube. The PVC tube confinement effect on concrete will decrease with an increase in strength of concrete. Load- carrying capacity and deformation of short composite columns with different loading condition made some difference. As the ratio of height to diameter increases, load- carrying capacity and plasticity of short composite columns decreased gradually.

The steel-plate-masonry composite structure is an innovative type of structural scheme popular in masonry structures with load-bearing walls removed for a large space. A total of 4 column specimens under static loading were tested to mainly study the failure modes, load-carrying capacity, and strain distribution in the critical cross-section. Results show that the composite columns started an initial failure from local buckling of the steel plate located between binding bolts; the main factors influencing load-carrying capacity included thickness of the steel plate, type of injected material, and initial column eccentricity; the working performance of the composite column with epoxy adhesive was better than that with cement grout; and re-distribution of compressive stress existed in the steel plates of the column. Also, the ratio of service load-carrying capacity to ultimate capacity of the steel-plate-masonry composite column is about 70%.

Cold Formed Steel

Cold-formed steel purlin systems with overlapped or sleeved connections are alternatives to continuous two-span systems and exhibit different degrees of continuity. Both connection types are highly favourable in practice since they are both strategically placed over an interior support to provide additional moment resistance and rotational capacity where the corresponding demands are at their largest, thus improving the overall structural efficiency. Until recently, full-scale testing has been the most common way of investigating the structural behaviour of such systems. In this study, numerical modelling, capable of capturing the complex contact interactions and instability phenomena, is employed. The developed finite element models are first validated against data from physical tests on cold-formed steel beams featuring sleeved and overlapped connections that have been previously reported in the literature. Following their validation, the models are employed for parametric studies, based on which the structural behaviour of the examined systems is explored, while the applicability of conventional plastic design as well as of a previously proposed design approach is investigated. Finally, the efficiency of these systems in terms of load-carrying capacity is compared with their equivalent continuous two-span systems.

AbstractThe aim of the research is laboratory investigation of aluminium brackets employed to fasten lightweight curtain walls to building facilities. Tensile loads perpendicular to end plates (vertical) were applied here. The author focused on the solutions intended to increase the load-carrying capacity of aluminium brackets applying the plain washer form A (DIN 125; ISO 7089), plain washer with an outer diameter about 3d (DIN 9021; ISO 7093) and additional cover plates (straps) in the location of bolt anchoring on the base plate. The aluminium brackets were tested on a steel base and concrete substrate. The flexibility of anchoring strongly affects the increase of the end plate middle point displacement and movable crosshead displacement.

In the present paper two forms of instability of monocoque structures in pure bending have been discussed in extenso, viz., the flattening and the local buckling. For ease of calculation it is assumed that the structure is cylindrical, of circular cross section and consisting of a great number of evenly spaced uniform longitudinal stiffeners, denoted stringers and of several evenly spaced uniform transverse stiffeners, called rings. The applicability of the results obtained to practical fuselages of non-circular cross section and the effect of different neglections have been dealt with in §§15 and 20.I.—Preliminary to the discussion of the above problems, the results obtained by different authors concerning both the load carrying capacity of panels after buckling and the failure of stringers have been collected in Part I.
