A University of Houston engineer has developed a method to detect possible damage in concealed cold-formed steel construction framing materials hidden behind walls, without having to tear the walls ...

Cold-formed steel portal frames have emerged as a versatile and efficient structural system in modern construction. Their design exploits thin-walled steel sections, which are cold-formed to yield ...

The process of cold working involves the strengthening of steel material by physically manipulating the material below the recrystallization temperature. The recrystallization temperature is defined ...
