This paper describes an alternative finite element model that would yield more accurate results in the prediction of the behavior of Profiled Steel Sheet Dry Board (PSSDB) folded plate structures, which can be considered as an improvement of an earlier proposed model. The PSSDB folded plate structures are being proposed as an alternative to traditional forms of roof construction.The PSSDB syste...

For some electrostatic precipitators, profiled steel sheets are used as casing wall which is subjected to both bending and vertical compression. By nonlinear finite element method, the influences of structural parameters on load bearing capacity of profiled steel sheet wall were investigated. For the loading path, the uniform transversal pressure was applied firstly, and then the vertical compr...

This paper describes the testing of Profiled Steel Sheet Dry Board (PSSDB) load bearing wall system. Experimental tests were conducted on various PSSDB wall samples, with and without infill materials to study its effect on the PSSDB load bearing wall performance. A proprietary profiled steel sheet, Ajiya Cliplock (0.48 mm thick) attached to Cemboard (10 mm thick) on one side, and Cemplank (10 m...

Many governments all over the world are trying to fulfill second basic need of shelter human being by affordable quality housing. Roofing is an important part building in structural, architectural and aesthetic point view. Due rapid increasing different types industry as well growing cities population, thin shell profiled steel sheet roofing element using for structural purpose. Its lightness, ...
