Numerical Investigation on Cold-Formed Steel Lipped Channel Columns with Intermediate Web Stiffeners
Abstract This work describes finite element simulation into the ultimate strength and buckling behaviour of cold-formed steel lipped channel columns with intermediate web stiffeners subjected to axial compression. Numerical simulation is performed by using finite element analysis software ANSYS. A reliable finite element model is used for the parametric study of effects of cross section geometries on the ultimate strength and buckling behaviour of cold-formed steel columns are investigated. All the section geometries in this study also satisfied the limitations given for pre-qualified sections in direct strength method. The cross sectional dimensions, section properties and length of the specimen are obtained by using CUFSM software. The ultimate strength predicted by the finite element analysis are compared with the strength calculated using the current direct strength method specifications for cold-formed steel structures, suitable design recommendations are proposed.
