Abstract Given their numerous functional and architectural benefits, such as improved bearing capacity and increased resistance to elastic instability modes, cold-formed steel (CFS) built-up sections have become increasingly developed and used in recent years, particularly in the construction industry. This paper presents an analytical and numerical study of assembled CFS two single channel-shaped columns with different slenderness and configurations (back-to-back, face-to-face, and box). These columns were joined by double-row rivets for the back-to-back and box configurations, whereas they were welded together for the face-to-face design. The built-up columns were filled with ordinary concrete of good strength.… More > Graphic Abstract

Abstract The tests of dynamic mechanical properties of materials at high temperature and high strain rate has always been a difficult issue [1]. In order to perform the dynamic mechanical properties of G550 cold-formed steel at high temperature and high strain rate, a set of Hopkinson Tension test device which can synchronize with high temperature control is developed for material test [2]. The stress-strain curves obtained from the tests were used to explore the influence of temperature and strain rate on the rheological properties of material by combining micro-analysis. The results show that G550 cold-formed steel… More >
