Original Abstract

The current trend in the design of steel structures leads, due to the saving of the material, to the frequent use of thin-walled cold formed steel sections. The majority of thin-walled steel profiles has a mono symmetrical cross-section, with the bending stiffness of the cross-section to the symmetry axis often higher than the bending stiffness to an axis per-pendicular to the axis of symmetry. By a suitable choice of the cross-sectional shapes and their shear connection (very often by means of bolted joints), the built-up thin-walled cross-sections can be created. These built-up sections are usually double symmetrical and their bending stiffnesses to the axes of symmetry are of same order. The subject of this article is an experimental investigation and evaluation of the shear connection of a pair of profiles with different number of fasteners and their arrangement.
