Numerical analysis of bolted connections in cold-formed steel members

This paper presents three-dimensional numerical models of bolted connections of cold-formed steel members. The purpose of three-dimensional numerical models is to evaluate the strength and the behavior of these connections. The computer code ANSYS v. 6.0, based on Finite Element Method, was used to...
