摘要：

Over the last decade, cold-formed steel (CFS) channels with circular edge-stiffened web holes have been widely used in New Zealand. In the case of web crippling, previous studies have revealed that the use of an edgestiffened hole almost results in the same strength as an equivalent channel-section having a plain web. Such circular edge-stiffened web holes could be extended to elongated holes. In terms of web crippling, however, no experimental or numerical works on such elongated holes were reported in the literature. In this paper, a numerical investigation was carried out to investigate the web crippling behaviour of CFS channels with elongated un-stiffened and edge-stiffened web holes under the end-two-flange (ETF) loading condition. The finite element (FE) models were validated against the test results of CFS channels with circular edge-stiffened web holes; good agreement in terms of the load-displacement relationships and failure modes was shown. A parametric study was then conducted, comprising 1,536 FE models. Compared to CFS channels with a plain web, for the case of channels with an elongated un-stiffened web hole, the average web crippling strength reduction for sections with an aspect ratio of two and three was 21 % and 36 %, respectively. However, for an elongated edge-stiffened hole, the reduction in the web crippling strength was only 5 % and 8 %, respectively. Finally, design equations in the form of the web crippling reduction factor (Rp) and the equations based on the direct strength method (DSM) for CFS channels with elongated web holes under ETF loading conditions were recommended.
