The seismic behaviour of a full-scale two-storey Cold-Formed Steel (CFS) building is explored via the shake-table tests on its bare structure and the complete construction phases. Starting from the shake-table test results, advanced numerical models have been developed using the OpenSees software, which also consider both the structural and the non-structural elements along with the contribution offered by the finishing components to the lateral force resistance. Numerical models implemented for both construction phases are able to simulate with good accuracy the experimental seismic behaviour of the building, in term of its fundamental period, the drift peaks and the displacement time history.

Abstract
The seismic behaviour of a full-scale two-storey Cold-Formed Steel (CFS) building is explored via the shake-table tests on its bare structure and the complete construction phases. Starting from the shake-table test results, advanced numerical models have been developed using the OpenSees software, which also consider both the structural and the non-structural elements along with the contribution offered by the finishing components to the lateral force resistance. Numerical models implemented for both construction phases are able to simulate with good accuracy the experimental seismic behaviour of the building, in term of its fundamental period, the drift peaks and the displacement time history.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
