Abstract
This paper will describe the behaviour of profiled steel sheeting under inplane shear and its application in building frames. Analytical models for shear strength and stiffness of the profiled steel sheeting are developed and validated by small scale model tests and finite element analyses. The strength, stiffness, failure modes and strain conditions are found to be greatly influenced by the boundary condition of the sheeting. The values of several factors related to the mode of attachment of the sheeting to practical building frames are studied to verify the suitability of design equations.
