Abstract
This research mainly concentrates on ultimate strength and buckling behaviour of cold formed steel (CFS) laterally un-braced longitudinally stiffened box sections under flexure. A total of five various stiffener combinations for box sections has been studied by modifying the shape of a simple end stiffened section by the provision of intermediate stiffeners along web, flange or both along web and flange. The influence of different types of stiffeners with respect to various aspect radio’s (H/T, B/T, C/T and H/B) have been studied using Finite Element Method (FEM), and recommendations have been proposed on provisions of different stiffener’s combinations. This study mainly details with ultimate strength and buckling behaviour of CFS laterally unbraced stiffened box sections made by C sections connected face to face.
