Abstract

Cold-formed steel section (CFSS) is a popular material in the steel structure that has been recognised in construction work. CFSS with curved section is a new section that proposed in the CFSS and still being studied by researchers. Steel curved section, whether by using hot-rolled or cold-formed steel become essential and significant in the design that be suited by the architectural demand. For this reason, the CFSS is recommended to provide the curve in the structure and dispute the use of the hot-rolled steel. In the study, the CFSS is curved by using a clamp, small bender and welding machine. Through this process, CFSS with cut-curved (CFSS-C) is strengthened by welding in particular location at flange and web. The CFSS-C are established into five specimens with different of welding location and added with one normal specimen (CFSS-N) as a control specimen. The CFSS is tested for the structural performance of the column specimens with the height, 1000 mm under compression load and lastly the suitable strengthens method with highest of ultimate load is selected. From the testing, CFSS-C4 is reported to decrease about 32.26 % when compared with normal specimen.
