  4. Objective Development of a general design methodfor cold-formed steel members with perforations. Direct Strength Method Extensions Pn = f (Py, Pcre, Pcrd, Pcrl)? Does fstay the same? Explicitly model hole(s)? Accuracy? Efficiency? Identification? Just these modes? Gross or net, or some combination?

  5. DSM for columns no holes 267 columns , b = 2.5, f = 0.84

  6. Progress Report 1 HighlightDSM prediction* for stub columns with holes mean test-to-predicted = 1.04 standard deviation = 0.16 *Pcr by FE reflects test boundary conditions, minimum D mode selected, Py=Py,g

  7. Progress Report 1 HighlightGlobal buckling in long columns with holes mean test-to-predicted = 1.14 standard deviation = 0.09

  8. Project Update • Year 1 of 3 complete • Project years 1: Elastic buckling studies, identifying modes, benefiting from existing data 2: Ultimate strength studies, modal composition, connecting elastic stability to strength 3: Experimental validation & software

  9. Outline • Objective and challenges • Project overview • FE elastic stability studies • slotted hole spacing limits • flange holes in SSMA studs • FE strength studies • nonlinear solution methods (ABAQUS) • isolated plates with holes • studies on effective width • SSMA structural stud with hole (initial study) • Conclusions task group

  10. Slotted Hole Spacing in Plates • Motivation • Evaluate influence of hole spacing on elastic buckling of plates • Study buckling modes with multiple holes, observe critical buckling stress as hole spacing changes • Provide code-based recommendations on slotted hole spacing

  11. Influence of a single hole (benchmark: stiffened plate in compression)

  12. Influence of multiple holes Fixed length plate, vary spacing and quantity of holes (note clear space between holes = S – Lhole) models compared at equal numbers of DOF

  13. Influence of multiple holes

  14. Elastic buckling study: S/Lhole > 5 implies S > 5Lhole and Sclear > 4Lhole Send > 2.5Lhole and Sclear-end > 2Lhole Old D4 rules on holes... S > 24 in. Sclear-end > 10 in. Lhole < 4.5 in. implies S > 5.3Lhole Sclear-end > 2.2Lhole old rules look reasonable, but we need to non-dimensionalize Comparison of findings on spacing

  15. Critical buckling stress equation for S/Lhole > 5

  41. Influence of hole and end conditions on strength baseline response: initial imperfections not considered here

  42. SSMA stud failure mechanisms 33 ksi yield stress Yielding occurs in the web, flange, and lip stiffener Fixed ends Pu=0.77Py,g Yielding occurs only at the hole Fixed ends with hole Pu=0.61Py,g Pinned ends Pu=0.64Py,g Pinned ends with hole Pu=0.53Py,g

  43. Conclusions • Progress report 1 shows • holes create new mixed buckling modes,for web holes this means triggering distortional buckling earlier • DSM style methods are working in an average sense, when reduced elastic buckling for holes is accounted for • New elastic buckling studies show that • Hole spacing: S/Lhole>5 , Send/Lhole>2.5 to avoid interaction • Flange holes: bhole/b < 0.5 to avoid reduced Pcr in SSMA stud • Ultimate Strength of Plates/Members with holes • Nonlinear FEA is v. sensitive to solution algorithm • Net section “revealed” for stocky sections, small imperfections • Imperfection sensitivity not markedly increased due to hole • Hole impacts “effective width” and through thickness rigidity • Yielding patterns with hole are more “like” distortional buckling mechanisms than local mechanisms suggesting reduced post-buckling capacity and some concern with using DSM local buckling curve for members with holes.

  44. What’s Next? • Elastic buckling and nonlinear FEM of COLUMNS with holes • Elastic buckling and nonlinear FEM of BEAMS with holes • Modal decomposition of failure modes with GBT • Laboratory testing of intermediate length SSMA studs with holes • Moving closer to a formal connection between elastic buckling and ultimate strength for cold-formed steel members with holes
