STRUCTURAL COLD FORMED STEEL FRAMING HOW TO

See ClarkDietrich's Product Identification sheet for more on how to identify our products. This framing member is also used in axial load-bearing wall assemblies.Д¬larkDietrich S250 (CSE) members have a 2-1/2' wide flange and a 5/8' return and are used in floor joist assemblies and heavy loading conditions.Д¬larkDietrich S300 (CSS) members have a 3' flange and a 5/8' return and are used in very heavy loading and long spanning conditions. They also provide the vertical strength necessary for demanding load-bearing structural applications and sufficient strength for many joist applications.Д¬larkDietrich S200 (CSW) members a 2' wide flange and a 5/8' return that provides a larger bearing surface for attaching sub-flooring or sheathing materials. S162 members are preferred for most curtain wall applications.

All studs are color coded for easy identification.Д¬larkDietrich S137 (CWN) member have a 1-3/8' flange and 3/8' return and are used to support the exterior skin or cladding material (metal, stone, tile, glass, etc.) and the wind loads to which they are subjected.Д¬larkDietrich S162 (CSJ) members have a 1-5/8' flange and a 1/2' return and are considered the industry standard.

Standard coating: CP60 (CP90 available).

Thickness: 33 mils (20ga), 43 mils (18ga), 54 mils (16ga), 68 mils (14ga) and 97 mils (12ga).ДЈ3mil (20ga) and 43mil (18ga) framing products are produced with 33ksi steel.ДҐ4mil (16ga), 68mil (14ga) and 97mil (12ga) products are produced with 50ksi steel.

As the decrease of stud spacing, height of wall and screw spacing at the perimeter, the walls' load ability increases obviously.ClarkDietrich studs are made in a variety of flange widths to meet different applicationsД¬larkDietrich iTools - Structural Stud Lookup Tool The strength of steel has a less influence on the shear resistance of walls. The results of test and finite element analysis show that sheathing materials influences the wall's shear resistance more greatly. Finite element analysis results in this paper are close to that of experiment. The solution method of equations is selected by ANSYS program automatically. The screws connecting the sheathings to the frame are modeled by coupling methods. The studs and tracks are simply connected. Then, the finite element analysis model of cold-formed steel stud walls considering geometric large deformation and materials nonlinear is presented to study their shear resistance. The test apparatus and test method and the failure process of specimens are introduced in detail.

The test models, including walls with single-sided gypsum sheathing, walls with single-sided oriented strand board sheathing, and walls with gypsum sheathing on the back and oriented strand board on the face are made in full scale of engineering project. Firstly, the shear resistance of cold-formed steel stud walls under monotonic loading is tested. In this paper, tests and finite element analysis are used to study the shear resistance of cold-formed steel stud walls in low-rise residential structures.
