Research on the Simplified Method of Nonlinear Finite Element Analysis for CFS-SPR Connections

This study reviewed some simplified methods of finite element analysis (FEA) for connections in cold-formed steel (CFS) structure, and summarized eight simplified methods divided into three categories. Shear performance tests were performed for six groups of self-piercing riveted (SPR) connection in...
