Systematic literature review of cold-formed steel at elevated temperature scenario

Cold-formed steels (CFS) or light gauge steels (LGS) are steel sections created through processes without heat application, such as roll forming or press-braking. In the past few decades, the utilization of CFS as a structural material has expanded due to its advantages over the other materials used...

description Cold-formed steels (CFS) or light gauge steels (LGS) are steel sections created through processes without heat application, such as roll forming or press-braking. In the past few decades, the utilization of CFS as a structural material has expanded due to its advantages over the other materials used in the construction industry, consequently increasing the number of studies conducted by many researchers. CFS studies have focused on many research areas, including designing, and analyzing members and systems, connections, sustainability, residual stresses, and post-fire data. As a result, several authors have also conducted a literature review involving these areas. However, a literature review for more recent studies involving elevated temperature exposure of CFS has not been conducted. This paper seeks to compile and review the recent publications regarding CFS behavior and performance at high temperatures events. Sixty-nine (69) journal articles published from 2017 to 2023 were retrieved from the Scopus database and systematically reviewed through text mining with the aid of VOS Viewer. Prior studies utilizing finite element analysis and experimental methods to investigate the performance at elevated temperature events of varying CFS sections, systems, and steel grades have been summarized. In addition, this paper also briefly discussed the findings of the recent research works involving member connections of CFS. Key points from the literature review have been emphasized such as the outcome of experimental and numerical validation of existing design rules from different codes such as American Iron and Steel Institute (AISI), Eurocodes, and Australian codes which could vary depending on the CFS section and steel grades. Important points of previous studies regarding the CFS walls, insulations, and screwed connections have also been noted in this paper. Based on the review, research gaps in the prior studies involving elevated temperature exposure of CFS have been identified, such as lack of CFS investigation under fatigue and cyclic loading. These were then recommended as future direction and concentration of CFS at elevated temperatures research works.
