  1. Wrap-up

  2. summary • carrot • stick • crystal ball

  3. Familiar with the terms Local (Mcrl), distortional (Mcrd) and global (Mcre) elastic buckling • Able to perform elastic buckling calculations using the finite strip method (CUFSM) • Able to use the Direct Strength Method of AISI Spec. Appendix 1 to predict nominal strength (Mn) using the elastic buckling results • Know where to go to learn more: www.ce.jhu.edu/bschafer and DSM Design Guide

  4. DSM • Mechanics replace empiricism • All member limit states are addressed in one method • Any cross-section can be studied, thus realizing one of the great potentials of cold-formed steel • Avenues for new products without exhaustive testing • Rediscover the technology product/market of metal systems instead of the commodity market • The main AISI Specification, over the years, has contributed to creating a level playing field for steel framing systems, but one that does not allow a great deal of innovation – with DSM in place a new playing field has just been opened up!

  5. DSM • New distortional buckling provisions are onerous and best completed with DSM instead. Done right, distortional buckling can have little impact on strength • Only simple lip edge stiffeners allowed in Main Specification now • Remember that new DSM playing field? Someone is going to go there, what happens to those who don’t? • How long until European, Australian, Asian? companies bring their sections here and demonstrate why they improved/optimized their sections years ago

  6. DSM can reasonably be traced to a conference presentation in 1998, in less than 10 years it has come to the AISI Specification • In 10 more years DSM will become the preferred method for cold-formed steel strength prediction • This opens the door to further use of computational tools in cold-formed steel design • Research is happening from many different directions, but true and accurate virtual models of buildings are in the works (10 to 20 years?). Steel framed buildings will come early to this game because they have always been engineered. How will the industry take advantage of this? www.crystal-cure.com
