CFSRC Summer Symposium 2022

Cold-Formed Steel Research Consortium (CFSRC) graduate student and postdoctoral researchers shared their latest research during the third edition of the online CFSRC Summer Symposium on 23 May 2022. The interest from the students led to an exceptional list of talks: 17 presentations from 6 different universities. Participants including the CFSRC Investigator team enjoyed a deep dive into cold-formed steel and related research focusing on from fire design to high strength steel, seismic to imperfection analysis and fast floor to building design.
