Experimental Testing of Innovative Cold-Formed "GEB" Section / Badania Eksperymentalne Innowacyjnego Kształtownika Giętego Na Zimno Typu „Geb“

One of the major advantages of light gauge steel structures made of cold-formed steel sections is their low weight, so manufacturers are increasingly using the possibilities of those sections for the production of typical single-storey steel structures systems. Well known profiles, such as Z, C and the so called hat sections that have been studied and described in the literature, are used mainly as purlins or truss components. A new profile GEB was patented and it may serve as primary load-bearing members in fabricated steel frames. According to the code [1] every new section shape should be tested to assign the cross sectional deformation behaviour and capacity, hence this profile inter alia was tested for three point loading. The paper reports the results of this experimental investigation and also computational analysis in MARC MANTAT e.g. deformation modes and values of maximum load. Simultaneously, values of cross-section capacity were assigned based on codes [1, 2].
