Design and Detailing of Cold-Formed Steel Headers Curved in Plan (1.0 PDH)
T. Patrick Earney, P.E., S.E.
McClure Engineering

Often, cold-formed steel (CFS) is not considered for curved headers, and hollow structural steel (HSS) is used instead.  It is often desirable to limit the use of hot-rolled steel shapes due to labor agreements or simply contractor preference.

Curved header design is complex due to the addition of torsion forces in both the header and the connections.  However, relatively simple techniques can be used to analyze the headers. For many applications, considerable material savings can be realized. It is also often possible to improve the dimensional accuracy of the curves.

This presentation will demonstrate that CFS can be used in many applications for headers that are curved in plan. The following topics will be presented:

  • Applications of headers curved in plan
  • Analysis and design of the box header
  • Analysis and design of box header connections
  • Details of end connections
  • Analysis and design of the end connections

With careful consideration of the forces involved, it is possible and often feasible to design cold-formed steel box headers that are curved in plan.

Cold-Formed Steel Classroom (1.0 PDH)
Sorting Out Buckling – Should I Use EWM or DSM?
Roger A. LaBoube, Ph.D., P.E.,
Center for Cold-Formed Steel Structures

The concepts of cold-formed steel design are not typically taught in engineering schools, so engineers are required to learn them on their own.  Whether you are an entry level structural engineer or a seasoned veteran, this CFSEI lecture will provide a fundamental understanding of the behavior and design principles (Effective Width Method and Direct Strength Method) for cold-formed steel members. Roger will draw on lecture materials used in his semester course and three-day short course to explain the unique aspects of cold-formed steel behavior and design principles.

Dr. Roger A. LaBoubeRoger A. LaBoube, Ph.D., P.E., is Curator’s Distinguished Teaching Professor Emeritus of Civil, Architectural and Environmental Engineering and Director of the Wei-Wen Yu Center for Cold-Formed Steel Structures at the Missouri University of Science & Technology (formerly University of Missouri-Rolla).  Dr. LaBoube holds B.S., M.S., and Ph.D. degrees in Civil Engineering from the University of Missouri-Rolla.  He has an extensive background in the design and behavior of cold-formed steel structures.  His research and design activities have touched on many facets of cold-formed steel construction including cold-formed steel beams, panels, trusses, headers and wall studs as well as bolt, weld, and screw connections.  Dr. LaBoube is active in several professional organizations and societies.  He is a member of the American Iron and Steel Institute’s Committee on Specifications for the Design of Cold-Formed Steel Structural Members and is chairman of the AISI Committee on Framing Standards.

Taking BIM to the Next Level – Can We Fabricate CFS Panels Like They Build Cars? (1.0 PDH)
Rudy Trujillo and Kirsten Zeydel, S.E.
Digital Building Components

Many friendships in the CFSEI community have been strained over arguments about the value of BIM. But what if you could fabricate directly out of the model like they do with cars—would that change the tone of the debate? Learn from the experiences of one panel fabricator that has set out to take BIM to the next level by manufacturing directly from the model. Learn what that means, what works, what it takes, their successes, their failures, and how it relates to the engineering community.

Cold-Formed Steel Resources – Explore the Latest Developments  (1.0 PDH)
Jon-Paul Cardin, P.E.
American Iron and Steel Institute

The American Iron and Steel Institute has recently published 2015 editions of the suite of CFS design standards (S220-15, S240-15, S310-15, S400-15) and the 2016 edition of the North American Specification (S100-16).  This presentation will provide an overview of the changes and content of each of the newly published standards. It will also provide clarification regarding the edition of the Specification that is referenced in the standards, in the building codes (International Building Code and International Residential Code), how they interact, and what to use in design.
