Abstract
The purpose of the paper is to perform a static analysis of a thin-wall cold-rolled steel cross-section of a trapezoidal sheet by means of a mathematical model developed in ANSYS, commercially available software applications. The trapezoidal sheets are used typically as an external cladding which covers the structures of steel halls. Investigating into behaviour of the trapezoidal sheets subjected to extreme loads represents an urgent issue in wind engineering. A physical tension test has been performed in order to verify and confirm the mathematical model. Experiments have been performed to prove results of the static analysis into the behaviour of a load-carrying structure formed by a thin-wall cross-section.
