This paper is devoted to identifying and numerically characterizing the strength of cold-formed steel (CFS) wall assemblies of various height with non-uniform bearing conditions. The results are for a means of evaluating existing design guidelines presented in the North American Specification of the American Iron and Steel Institute (AISI S100-16)....

... uniform displacement control load is applied to the top track. A developed finite element model for 68 mil specimen, 11.5 inches (29.21 cm) in height, placed at edge of concrete slab is represented in Figure 4. More detail about developing the finite element models of CFS wall assemblies and concrete slabs can be found in [13]. ...

... Numerical modeling is a widely economical time-saving applied technique to solve complex problems and it has been widely used in civil engineering problems [1][2][3][4][5]. In recent years, RCS systems, as one of the new building systems consisting of reinforced concrete columns and steel beams, have been widely considered in the design and construction of buildings in the United States and Japan [6,7]. In Japan large construction companies have developed their facilities and invested in research on RCS systems. ...
