Recent Trends in Cold-Formed Steel Construction, Second Edition focuses on the application and use of this important construction material. In this updated edition, new chapters take on these developments, offering updates on cutting-edge new technologies and design methods for using cold-formed steel as a structural material and providing technical guidance on how to design and build sustainable and energy-efficient cold-formed steel buildings. Sections introduce codes, specifications and design methods, provide computational analysis of cold-formed steel structures, examine the structural performance of cold-formed steel buildings, and review thermal performance, acoustic performance, fire protection, floor vibrations and blast resistance. Over the last few years, there has been major breakthroughs for cold-formed steel design with modular building applications now becoming more widely accepted. Other scientific developments include research on system reliability applications, AI machine learning, and the use of high strength steel, as well as new connection methods and changes in DSM codes. - Addresses building science issues and provides performance solutions for the design of cold-formed steel buildings - Provides guidance for using next generation design methods, computational tools and technologies - Edited by an experienced researcher and educator with significant knowledge on new developments in cold-formed steel construction - Covers new developments such as modular construction, machine learning and code developments in Europe, Australia and China

Provides the latest AISI North American specifications for cold-formed steel design Hailed by professionals around the world as the definitive text on the design of cold-formed steel, this book provides descriptions of the construction and structural behavior of cold-formed steel members and connections from both theoretical and experimental points of view. Updated to reflect the 2016 AISI North American specification and 2015 North American framing standards, this all-new fifth edition offers readers a better understanding of the analysis and design of the thin-walled, cold-formed steel structures that have been widely used in building construction and other areas in recent years. Cold-Formed Steel Design, 5th Edition has been revised and reorganized to incorporate the Direct Strength Method. It discusses the reasons and justification for the various design provisions of the North American specification and framing design standards. It provides chapter coverage of: the types of steels and their most important mechanical properties; the fundamentals of buckling modes; commonly used terms; the design of flexural members, compression members and closed cylindrical tubes, and of beam–columns using ASD, LRFD, and LSD methods; shear diaphragms and shell roof structures; standard corrugated sheets; and more. Updated to the 2016 North American (AISI S100) design specification and 2015 North American (AISI S240) design standard Offers thorough coverage of ASD, LRFD, LSD, and DSM design methods Integrates DSM in the main body of design provisions Features a new section on Power-Actuated Fastener (PAF) Connections Provides new examples and explanations of design provisions Cold-Formed Steel Design, 5th Edition is not only instructive for students, but can serve as a major source of reference for structural engineers, researchers, architects, and construction managers.

For more than forty years the series of International Colloquia on Stability and Ductility of Steel Structures has been supported by the Structural Stability Research Council (SSRC). Its objective is to present the latest results in theoretical, numerical and experimental research in the area of stability and ductility of steel and steel-concrete composite structures. In Stability and Ductility of Steel Structures 2019, the focus is on new concepts and procedures concerning the analysis and design of steel structures and on the background, development and application of rules and recommendations either appearing in recently published Codes or Specifications and in emerging versions, all in anticipation of the new edition of Eurocodes. The series of International Colloquia on Stability and Ductility of Steel Structures started in Paris in 1972, the last five being held in: Timisoara, Romania (1999), Budapest, Hungary (2002), Lisbon, Portugal (2006), Rio de Janeiro, Brazil (2010) and Timisoara, Romania (2016). The 2019 edition of SDSS is organized by the Czech Technical University in Prague.
