Abstract

Cold formed steel portal frames are widely used as alternative to traditional portal frames made from hot rolled steel sections. Load-displacement response of cold formed steel single C-section portal frames is available. C-section portal frames undergo significant deformation before reaching their ultimate loads. In this study, cold formed steel angle portal frame is analyzed using finite element analysis in order to find the load-displacement response. Bolt pressure is applied at the location of physical bolts in ANSYS.
