$100.00
Continuing Education Credits Available – 1.5 PDH Credits
The webinar introducing AISI S250, North American Standard for Thermal Transmittance of Building Envelopes with Cold-Formed Steel Framing, will walk attendees through the history, development and contents of the AISI S250 standard. Participants will obtain a relative understanding of how to apply the various provisions in order to evaluate the thermal capabilities of envelope assemblies (e.g., walls, ceilings/roofs) containing cold-formed steel framing for use in professional practice. Jonathan Humble led the work group responsible for the development and publication of the AISI S250 standard.

Webinar on the Cold-Formed Steel Classroom: Understanding the Fundamentals Behavior of Cold-Formed Steel Members
Continuing Education Credits Available – 1.5 PDH Credits
The concepts of cold-formed steel behavior and design are not typically taught in engineering schools and therefore engineers are often required to self-teach these concepts. Therefore, if you are an entry level structural engineer, or a seasoned veteran, this CFSEI lecture is intended to provide a fundamental understanding of the some of the behavior and design principles for cold-formed steel members and connections. Roger will draw on lecture materials used in his semester course and three-day short course to explain the unique aspects of cold-formed steel behavior and design principles of AISI S100. The seminar will also discuss the roll-out of a new CFSEI Six-Hour lecture series that provides an overview of cold-formed steel member and connection behavior and design.

Webinar on Cold-Formed Steel Connection Applications
Continuing Education Credits Available – 1.5 PDH Credits
This webinar will explore common cold-formed steel connection applications with an emphasis on clip angles. Until AISI D114, Cold-Formed Steel Clip Angle Design Guide was issued in 2021, there was no recognized design approach for clip angles. Based on research at the University of North Texas, a better understanding of the behavior and therefore the design requirements are now available.
Connection design information provided by AISI D110, Cold-Formed Steel Framing Design Guide, AISI D112, Brick Veneer Cold-Formed Steel Framing Design Guide and CFSEI Tech Notes will also be discussed.

Webinar on Demystifying Cold-Formed Steel Torsion Analysis for Design
Continuing Education Credits Available – 1.5 PDH Credits
Cold-formed steel structural members are commonly subjected to torsion. The torsional behavior of open cross-sections can be complex, involving both warping torsion and St. Venant torsion. Most structural engineering curriculums do not teach this combined torsion response, leaving many engineers with limited ability to properly design for torsion. To complicate matters, most structural analysis software does not fully capture the torsional behavior for cold-formed steel members.
This webinar will review some torsion fundamentals and explain torsion distribution using analogies to flexural behavior familiar to structural engineers. The similarity to flexure will be demonstrated using the CFS® software. The AISI design provisions for combined bending and torsion will be reviewed, and the application of these provisions will be evaluated with several design examples.

Webinar on the Wonderful World of Buckling
Continuing Education Credits Available – 1.5 PDH Credits
A thin compression element of a cold-formed steel member – such as a flange or a web — may buckle before it reaches its yield stress. Thus, cold-formed steel design involves estimating the influence such buckling has on the strength of a beam or column.
What are these buckling conditions? How do they differ in their behavior? This webinar will explore the basic buckling behaviors encountered as one designs a cold-formed steel beam or column. Emphasis will be placed on the fundamental behavior and highlight the design expressions that enable an engineer to estimate buckling strength.
Join Roger LaBoube, Ph.D., P.E., on this journey through the wonderful world of buckling.

Webinar on Cold-Formed Steel Attachment to Concrete in Seismic Zones
Continuing Education Credits Available – 1.5 PDH Credits
For decades, Power- Actuated Fasteners (PAFs) have been used in the construction industry as a safe, reliable, and productive method to fasten various building components-such as cold-formed steel (CFS) framing-to steel and concrete. Code provisions for the use of PAFs in seismic areas for attachments of cold-formed metal framing to concrete have been subject to various interpretations. This presentation will provide recommendations based on Hilti’s understanding of the code provisions.
AISI S100-16, North American Specification for the Design of Cold-Formed Steel Structural Members, 2016 Edition (including the latest supplements), provides some basic provisions regarding calculation of the shear and tension resistance of a connection between CFS and concrete, but does not provide specific equations or values. In addition, Chapter 13 of ASCE/SEI 7-16, Minimum Design Loads and Associated Criteria for Buildings and Other Structures, includes some restrictions regarding the use of PAFs in Seismic Design Categories (SDC) D, E, and F. Chapter 13 is entitled “Seismic Design Requirements for Nonstructural Components,” so the focus is on nonstructural applications like partition walls.
This presentation is designed to clarify the intent of the language in the code-referenced publications AISI S100 and ASCE/SEI 7-16 as it relates to PAFs used to attach track to concrete, in SDC A-C and SDC E-F. The presentation will also provide practical guidance to the designer regarding which design values should be used and where those values can be obtained. Additional practical recommendations will be provided regarding the specification of various types of PAFs and their embedment depths into the concrete.

Webinar on Cold-Formed Steel Framing Design with Data-Driven Models
Continuing Education Credits Available – 1.5 PDH Credits
A historical challenge for the cold-formed steel industry has been the generation of many disparate physical test data sets without much dedicated effort on collecting and curating that data. A non-profit data-driven Initiative was recently launched to address this knowledge gap, and the Initiative’s mission is to make high quality physical test data accessible to anyone. This webinar will discuss a plan for using emerging data-driven tools to design cold-formed steel framing. The webinar will present a convincing case for how data-driven models can reduce the hoops an engineer has to jump through to design cold-formed steel framing. Cris will use examples to highlight the first open databases and supporting data tools from the Initiative that are now becoming available.
