| Summary: | Thin-walled cold-formed members are thin, this will give rise to
behavioural phenomena, which are not usually encountered in the
more familiar hot-rolled sections. When compared to hot-rolled steel
sections, cold-formed thin-walled steel sections are more likely to fail in
local buckling, distortional buckling, various global buckling and shear
buckling. This paper will discuss types of connection in Jjoints for coldformed
thin-walled sections and steel sheeting. Bolts, screws, blind
rivets or cartridge fired pins are commonly used in joints for coldformed
thin-walled sections or steel sheet connections. Fasteners in
light gauge steel tend to be relatively less stiff than their counterparts
in heavier construction so that connection flexibility can be significant in
certain assemblies. Furthermore, as in any load-bearing structure, it is
important that connections are not brittle and this implies that there
should be adequate deformation capacity. |
