• Method– Material and geometric nonlinear analysis in

ABAQUS using S9R5 shell element models; geometric local and distortional imperfections considered

– Models generated from purpose-built Matlab code

Conclusion• Under combined loading the assumptions in linear

interaction equations are invalidated in CFS members due to– Un-symmetric shapes of common CFS sections– Consideration of cross-section stability

• Finite element models for local and distortional models are developed to examine load-bending collapse envelopes.

• Preliminary Direct Strength Method design expressions for beam-columns in local and distortional buckling as a function of elastic section slenderness are established and compared with the FE models developed.

• Significant efficiency in the proposed DSM approach in comparison with traditional design.

Page 28: Towards a Direct Strength Method for Cold-Formed Steel Beam-Columns

Future work

• Incorporation of recently proposed inelastic bending provisions

• Further preliminary studies including global buckling

• Beam-column tests• Comprehensive FE parametric study• Formal DSM proposals for beam-columns
