Numerical Modelling and Analysis of Structural Behaviour of Wall-stud Cold-formed Steel Shear Wall Panels under In-plane Monotonic Loads

No / This paper presents a numerical modelling method to predict the shear behaviour of typical wall-stud cold-formed steel wall panels subjected to in-plane monotonic loads. In the research presented in this paper, different material and mechanical properties for cold-formed steel sheets, self-drilling screwed connectors and wall fixing boundary conditions were considered to explore the influence of sheath sheeting, connectors and fixing boundary conditions on the structural behaviour of selected wall panels. After the FE model being validated against experimental results, a parametric study was conducted and the comparison and analysis highlight the effect of different sheaths, connectors on to the structural shear behaviour of typical wall-stud cold-formed steel wall panels.
