Conclusion• Under combined loading the assumptions in linear
interaction equations are invalidated in CFS members due to– Un-symmetric shapes of common CFS sections– Consideration of cross-section stability
• Finite element models for local and distortional models are developed to examine load-bending collapse envelopes.
• Preliminary Direct Strength Method design expressions for beam-columns in local and distortional buckling as a function of elastic section slenderness are established and compared with the FE models developed.
• Significant efficiency in the proposed DSM approach in comparison with traditional design.
Future work
• Incorporation of recently proposed inelastic bending provisions
• Further preliminary studies including global buckling
• Beam-column tests• Comprehensive FE parametric study• Formal DSM proposals for beam-columns
