Experimental Investigation on Flexural Behavior of Cold Formed Beams with Lightweight Concrete

Article Preview

Abstract:

In recent years, thin-walled, cold-formed steel (CFS) structural members have gained expanding use in building construction and various sorts of structural systems [1,2,3].The utilization Cold-Formed Steel (CFS) structures has become progressively popular in different fields of building technology. The reasons behind the developing popularity of these products include their ease of fabrication, high strength/weight ratio and suitability for a wide range of applications. These advantages can result in more economic designs, as compared with hot-rolled steel, especially in short-span applications. In this project work attempt has been made to use Cold formed steel section as replacement to conventional steel reinforcement bar.
