There has been a growing shift towards the use of fire-resistant steel (FRS) in the
construction industry as a replacement for conventional structural steel (CSS). However …

Due to the structural integrity and redundancy in structural design, a steel building may not
collapse in a fire hazard. Then the residual mechanical properties of steel materials are …

Mechanical properties have an important role in the fire safety design of cold-formed steel
structures due to the rapid reduction in mechanical properties such as yield strength and …

This paper investigates the interior-one-flange web crippling strength of cold-formed steel
channels at elevated temperatures. The stress-strain curves of G250 and G450 grade cold …

Abstract Hot-rolled Q235, Q345, and Q420 steel members and cold-formed Q235 hollow
sections are widely used in building structures. During fire hazards, steel structures are …

Cold-formed steel (CFS) is increasingly used in building construction in many countries due
to its lightweight and fast and easy construction characteristics. However, its fire resistance is …

This paper presents the material properties of cold-formed high strength steel at elevated
temperatures. Material properties at elevated temperatures have a crucial role in fire …

Cold-formed steel members are widely used in residential, industrial and commercial
buildings as primary load-bearing elements. During fire events, they will be exposed to …

The use of light-gauge steel framed (LSF) wall systems in low-and mid-rise buildings has
increased due to the fast and clean construction and robust structural performance. Cold …

The accuracy of structural fire design of cold-formed steel structures depends on the
available predictive models regarding mechanical and thermal properties. The deterioration …
