EXPERIMENTAL BEHAVIOR OF SINGLE- AND DOUBLE-SHEAR SCREW CONNECTIONS IN COLD-FORMED STEEL TRUSSES
Self-drilling screws have become the predominant fastening method for cold-formed steel (CFS) roof trusses due to their quick installation and on-site efficiency. In practice, screw connections in truss systems experience either single-shear or double-shear load transfer, depending on the member configuration. This stu...
