Abstract
For cold-formed lipped channel columns with web stiffener, the distortional buckling stress may be lower than the local buckling and overall buckling stress, and thus it may control the design. A countermeasure to prevent the distortional buckling of such sections form happening by setting batten plates between two lips of the section was analyzed using the finite element program of ANSYS. Varying length and one way axial force eccentricity were concerned to observe the effect of the batten plates to the buckling behavior, load carrying capacities of the section in different cases. All the results can be the reference for later experimental study.
