Abstract
During the past 27 years, numerous research projects have been conducted at the University of Missouri-Rolla (UMR) under the sponsorships of the American Iron and Steel Institute, National Science Foundation, American Society of Civil Engineers, Metal Building Manufacturers Association, Steel Deck Institute, Metal/Lath Steel Framing Association, Chromium Center, Nickel Development Institute, and several steel companies located in the USA, Canada, and South Africa. The purpose of these investigations has been to study the structural strength of cold-formed steel members, connections, and structural systems. Some of the research findings have been used in the development of the AISI Specification for the Design of Cold-Formed Steel Structural Members, the AISI Automotive Design Manual, and the ASCE Standard Specification for the Design of Cold-Formed Stainless Steel Structural Members. This paper reviews the research work and other related activities on cold-formed steel structures conducted at UMR. © 1998 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
