Abstract:

The Direct Strength Method (DSM) is a recently adopted design approach by the North American Specifications for Cold-Formed Steel Structural Members (AISI S100) for calculating the nominal strength of cold-formed steel (CFS) sections. The critical elastic buckling load shall be obtained in order to employ the DSM in computing the nominal strength of CFS members. The AISI S100 provides simplified methods for determining the critical elastic distortional buckling load. However it is found that the AISI S100 simplified methods are over conservative for the industrial standard C and Z sections in the U.S. This paper presents revised simplified methods for calculating the critical elastic distortional buckling loads of typical CFS C and Z sections in bending and axial compression loading respectively. The new methods yield more accurate results but similar computation cost compared to the existing methods. The new methods can be added to the DSM methodologies for designing CFS members.
