ERI: Seismic Performance of Buckled Cold-Formed Steel Panels Repaired with Fiber-Reinforce — NSF Award to Missouri University of S

Lightweight cold-formed steel shear panels are widely used for the construction of nonresidential buildings across the United States due to their high strength-to-weight ratio and ease of assembly. However, these structural components are vulnerable to buckling during seismic events, which can lead to significant damag

AbstractLightweight cold-formed steel shear panels are widely used for the construction of nonresidential buildings across the United States due to their high strength-to-weight ratio and ease of assembly. However, these structural components are vulnerable to buckling during seismic events, which can lead to significant damage or collapse. While restoring the post-earthquake structural integrity of affected buildings is critical for community resilience; however, repairing buckled elements, particularl
