WEBINAR ON COLD-FORMED STEEL CONNECTION APPLICATIONS

February 22, 2024 | 3:00 p.m. Eastern

Presenter: Roger LaBoube, Ph.D., P.E.

Presentation Outline

This webinar will explore common cold-formed steel connection applications with an emphasis on clip angles. Until AISI D114, Cold-Formed Steel Clip Angle Design Guide was issued in 2021, there was no recognized design approach for clip angles. Based on research at the University of North Texas, a better understanding of the behavior and therefore the design requirements are now available.

Connection design information provided by AISI D110, Cold-Formed Steel Framing Design Guide, AISI D112, Brick Veneer Cold-Formed Steel Framing Design Guide and CFSEI Tech Notes will also be discussed.

Dr. Roger A. LaBoube is Curator’s Distinguished Teaching Professor Emeritus of Civil, Architectural and Environmental Engineering and former director of the Wei-Wen Yu Center for Cold-Formed Steel Structures at the Missouri University of Science & Technology. 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 served as chairman of the American Iron and Steel Institute (AISI) Committee on Framing Standards and is an emeritus member of the AISI Committee on Specifications for the Design of Cold-Formed Steel Structural Members. He is a registered professional engineer in Missouri.
