UTILIZATION OF COLD FORM STEEL IN AN INDUSTRIAL BUILDING: A REVIEW

Increasing world population and natural resource limitations has led to a growing demand for more efficient structural systems to achieve a sustainable economy and society. Cold-formed steel CFS) Structural systems are increasingly adopted as primary or secondary structural members in modern building construction because of their light weight, speed of construction, recyclability, and sustainability. However, the inherently low buckling resistance of thin sections results in relatively low strength and ductility in CFS elements, which limits their performance in tall buildings and under extreme loading events. However, the scope of study is to Utilize Cold formed steel sections in a industrial frame.
