Traditional member-based two-step design approaches included in current structural codes
for steel structures, as well as more recent system-based direct-design alternatives, require …

This paper proposes a deep-learning framework, specifically, a Deep Belief Network (DBN),
for studying the web crippling performance of cold-formed stainless steel channel sections …

Stainless steels are modern high-performance construction materials exhibiting excellent
corrosion resistance, recyclability, ductility, and durability which make them appealing to use …

Abstract The current EN 1993-1-4 does not have supplementary web crippling design
provision for cold-formed stainless steel sections under local transverse forces. Therefore …

This article presents the first experimental study reported on the flexural behaviour of cold-
formed ferritic stainless steel (CFFSS) closed-section built-up beams. Each closed-section …

Cold-Formed (CF) structural members have recently drawn significant attention in light
gauge steel construction. The employment of the different materials, for example CF carbon …

The web crippling strength of unlipped cold-formed ferritic stainless steel channels subject to
interior-one-flange and end-one-flange loading is considered in this paper. A total of 144 …

This paper addresses the design of cold-formed ferritic stainless steel unlipped channel-
sections with offset web holes and fastened flanges subject to web crippling under one …

This paper presents a numerical investigation on web crippling of cold-formed lean duplex
stainless steel Z-sections under concentrated bearing loads. The two concentrated loading …

The high corrosion resistance, recyclability, ductility, and durability of stainless steels make
them appealing for use in the construction industry. However, when used as structural …
