Inelastic performance of welded cold-formed steel strap braced walls
Bibliographic record
Abstract
As cold-formed steel construction grows in North America the void in our building codes must be filled.The NBCC and the CSA S136 Standard currently have no seismic provisions for cold-formed steel construction.Recently, the AISI has made available an updated version of AISI S-213 which includes adaptations for use with Canadian codes.This standard gives guidance on the design and construction of cold-formed steel systems to be used for lateral load resistance and prescribes the use of a capacity approach for seismic design.Seismic force modification factors to be used in conjunction with the NBCC are recommended for two CBF categories; one for limited ductility (R d = 2.0, R o = 1.3), examined herein, and one for conventional construction (R d = 1.25, R o = 1.3).A building height limit of 20m for the limited ductility system is also recommended.guidance has proven unequal and I am truly grateful for the support you have provided me.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
