Progressive Collapse RequirementsCold-Formed Steel Load Bearing ConstructionBy Nabil A. Rahman, Ph.D., P.E., Michael Booth and Gary Bennett
In 2001, the Department of Defense(DoD) published its design guidelinesto resist the progressive collapse of
structures resulting from an extremeloading event in the Unified FacilitiesCriteria UFC 4-023-03 Design ofBuildings to Resist Progressive Collapse .This document provides the designrequirements necessary to reduce thepotential of progressive collapse fornew and existing DoD facilities.The use of UFC 4-023-03 is controlled
by the applicability requirementsof UFC 4-10-01 document DoD
Minimum Antiterrorism Standards forBuildings . UFC 4-023-03 covers the
design strategies and requirements forbuildings made of reinforced concrete,structural steel, masonry, wood, andcold-formed steel (CFS). The criteriaincludes design examples and designdetails for all the above materialsexcept cold-formed steel. It is theobjective of this article to discuss theprogressive collapse requirements inUFC 4-010-01 and UFC 4-023-03 asit relates to mid-rise construction usingcold-formed steel load bearing walls.
CFS Load BearingConstruction
In the opinion of the authors, the
use of CFS load bearing framing intypical mid-rise construction (Figure 1)brings the value of reducing associatedconstruction cost in comparison toother structural framing systems suchas reinforced masonry, structural steeland wood. A key component of the costsavings is the lighter mass of the structurerelative to the design of the lateral forceresisting system and the foundation. Itis important to note that several typesof floor systems can be integrated withCFS load bearing walls. Among these
types are composite steel deck-concreteslabs, CFS joists or open bar joists witha concrete or wood floor diaphragm,and pre-cast hollowcore concrete planks.The structural system combining CFSload bearing walls and hollowcoreplanks is ideal for low and mid-riseconstruction of three to eight storiesin height. Because precast hollowcoreconcrete planks provide the advantagesof high stiffness-to-weight ratio andrapid field installation, this allows for a
wide range of building usage includingapartment buildings, office buildings,health care facilities, hotels, schools,and dormitories.
Progressive CollapseRequirements
UFC 4-010-01 requires that all newand existing buildings of three storiesor higher be designed to avoid progres-sive collapse. UFC 4-023-03 offers twolevels of design procedures to resist pro-gressive collapse:• The first level of progressive collapse
design employs the “Tie Forces”method, which is based on the catenary(membrane tension) response of thestructure. This design level may be usedfor buildings assigned Very Low andLow Levels of Protection (VLLOP andLLOP). Horizontal ties only are requiredfor buildings assigned VLLOP, whilehorizontal and vertical ties are requiredfor buildings assigned LLOP.• The second level of progressive
collapse design employs the “AlternatePath” method, which is based on flexuralperformance of the floor system, as thebuilding must bridge across removedvertical supporting elements. Thisdesign level must be used for buildingassigned Medium and High Levels ofProtection (MLOP and HLOP).Tie Forces requirements and additional
ductility requirements must be alsosatisfied for MLOP and HLOP. In the
case that an adequate Tie Force cannotbe developed in a vertical structuralelement, then the Alternate Pathmethod is allowed to be used to verifythat the building can bridge over thedeficient element.DoD mid-rise building projects
include, but are not limited to, housingfacilities (barracks) in addition todining, gathering, operations centers,administrative buildings, and healthcare facilities. These types of facilitiesare typically assigned VLLOP or
LLOP (UFC 4-010-01, Table B-1). As a result, the Tie Forces method canbe used by the designer to satisfy theprogressive collapse resistance part ofthe design. The Tie Forces method is asimple, indirect design approach thatenhances the continuity, ductility andstructural redundancy of the building byrequiring horizontal and vertical “ties” tomechanically keep the building togetherin the event of an extreme loading thatcauses local damage.

shows the different types of ties that mustbe provided in the building design. Thereare two main groups of ties; horizontal andvertical. Horizontal ties include internalties within the floor system, ties to edgecolumns or walls, ties to corner columns,and peripheral ties around the perimeter ofthe building. While horizontal ties mustprovide a straight continuous load path fromone building edge to the other, vertical tiesmust provide a straight continuous load path
in columns and load bearing walls. Along aparticular horizontal or vertical load path,different structural elements may be used toprovide the required tie strength. Adequatemanufactured connections must be providedbetween these structural elements to ensurethe continuity of the load path.
Other additional design requirements thatapply to all levels of protection (VLLOPthrough HLOP) are:a) Multistory vertical load bearing
elements must be capable of supportingthe vertical load after the loss of lateralsupport at any floor level with an un-supported length (Lu) of:
Lu = 2 l s Eq. 1
where ls is the floor height in (ft). This
should be analyzed with the followingfactored load combination:
(0.9 or 1.2)D + (0.5L or 0.2S ) + 0.2W Eq. 2
where D is Dead Load, L is Live Load,S is Snow Load and W is Wind Load.

Worked Design Example
Building Description
A four-story barracks building designed withCFS load bearing walls and hollowcore precastconcrete planks for the floor slabs is considered
in this example. The barracks building isassigned LLOP and is approximately 330 feetlong and 60 feet wide, with an 11-foot, 4-inch floor to floor height and a CFS truss roofsystem. The building incorporates a normal
weight brick veneer finish on the exterior walls. The typical structural system consistsof interior and exterior load bearing walls inthe N-S direction that have variable spacingbetween the bearing walls with a maximumspan of 25 feet, 8 inches (Figure 3, see page10 ). Exterior walls in the E-W direction arealso load bearing walls, but only support
the truss roof loads in addition to their self weight and the lateral wind pressure. Theinterior corridor is supported by corridorbeams resting on individual CFS columns atthe inside edges of the load bearing walls.Hollowcore planks are selected to be 8
inches thick to accommodate the maximumspan of 25 feet, 8 inches between the N-S loadbearing walls. The planks require a seating/bearing width of 2 to 2.5 inches on top ofthe stud walls as recommended by the 1998Design Manual of the Precast/PrestressedConcrete Institute. A minimum of 6-inch
width wall framing can accommodatthe required plank seating width, but 8inch walls are typically recommended fointerior walls to allow enough gap betweeplanks to insert diaphragm connectors. Thunfactored design loads for this building arsummarized in Table 1 (page 10).
Required Tie ForcesThis barracks building is considered
composite construction since it has CF walls and columns with hollowcore concretslabs and CFS roof trusses. Hence, the floo
system is required to meet the internal tirequirements for reinforced concrete desig
while the roof system is required to meet thinternal tie requirements for CFS designThe walls and columns are required tmeet the peripheral, external and vertical tirequirements for CFS design, as applicable
Appropriate over-strength factors (W) anstrength reduction factors (F) must be usefor different materials as given in UFC 4023-03. The required horizontal and verticatie forces for the typical floor and interioand exterior walls and columns for thi
building are calculated as given in Table (see page 11) to generate tie schemes anmechanical connections.

bar ties may be run inside the core of theplanks in their longitudinal direction andin the connection joint between the planksin their perpendicular direction. Groutingis used to provide the bond between thesteel bars and the planks. Reinforcementsteel bars can also be used in the concretetopping in the longitudinal direction of theplanks, in addition to shorter anchored barsto tie adjacent planks in the perpendicular
direction. Using #4 Grade 60 rebar (60ksi yield strength) spaced 2 feet on centersatisfies all the internal tie force requirements(Maximum required strength = 4.41 kips/ft).b) Peripheral Ties The required peripheral ties around the
perimeter of the building can be achievedthrough the steel runner tracks bounding theexterior load bearing CFS stud walls. 6-inchexterior stud walls are recommended alongwith a minimum of 54 mil (0.0566-inchdesign thickness) runner tracks (Figure 4, seepage 12 ). A single 33 ksi yield strength standard
track (1.25-inch flange) provides an ultimatetensile strength of 14 kips, which exceeds therequired strength of 2.94 kips. Care must betaken at splice locations of runner tracks inorder to provide a splice connection capableof resisting the required tensile strength.Another method to provide the requiredperipheral ties is to use longitudinal steel barsembedded in the end grout. Two #4 Grade 60rebar provide an ultimate tensile strength thatexceeds the required tie strength.c) Horizontal Ties to External Walls The required horizontal ties to external walls
can be achieved by using reinforcement steelbars grouted into the hollowcore planks from
one side and anchored to the runner tracksof the CFS stud walls from the other side.Figure 4 (see page 12 ) shows these ties wherethe planks are supported by the stud wall andtransferring vertical loads (E-W direction ofthe barracks building). Similar ties should beprovided where the planks are only restingon the stud wall but not transferring anyvertical loads (N-S direction of the barracksbuilding). Anchorage of the horizontal ties
to the runner tracks ensures the continuitybetween internal ties and peripheral ties asrequired by UFC 4-023-03. Number 4 Grade60 rebar can be used at spacing 2 feet oncenter, which provides a tensile strength thatexceeds the required strength of 1.23 kips/foot. If steel bars are used as peripheral ties,the horizontal ties must extend to overlap
with the peripheral ties to provide the requiredanchorage between the two sets of ties.d) Vertical Ties The specifications for vertical ties are the
most critical requirements in this building’s
structural system due to the relatively heavy weight of the floor slab. For interior loadbearing walls, mechanical connectors are T-shape steel sections made of d-inch thickplates welded together with stiffeners andattached to both the bottom and top studs ofthe wall with ½ inch bolts (Figure 5 ). The T-shape connectors are tied together using two½-inch through bolts that run through theseparation gap between the planks. A testedT-shape connector with the same dimensionsprovides a tensile strength of about 21.8 kips.Use of this connector to tie every third stud
(every 4 feet) in interior walls would satisfythe required tensile strength of 4.3 kips/foot
(4.3 kips/ft x 4 ft = 17.2 kips < 21 kips). Thtensile capacity of two 2-inch through boltexceeds the required tensile strength. Thnumber of ½-inch bolts required to connecthe T-shape to the studs (acting in shear) idependant on the thickness of the stud. Foexample, a stud that is 54 mils thick and 50ksi yield strength requires eight ½-inch boltto develop connection shear strength of 17.kips. The stud itself must also be checked t
resist the same strength in tension. Similaor lighter mechanical connectors can bused for exterior load bearing walls in thN-S and E-W directions of the barrackbuilding since the required tensile strengthis significantly less.Corridor beams are typically designed a
structural steel W-or WT-shape resting otop of the corridor columns. The columns arbuilt-up CFS studs attached together wit
weld or screws, and capped from each en with a welded closure plate (Figure 6 ). Thhollowcore planks rest on top of the structura
steel beam. The required vertical ties for thcolumns can be achieved, as shown in Figur6 , first by welding the closure plate of thbottom CFS column to the W-shape steebeam. Then, four ½-inch through bolts (twon each side of the column) run through thhollowcore planks and are fastened at one ento the top flange of the W-shape beam and athe other end to the closure plate of the toCFS column. Stiffener plates for the W-shapsteel beam are provided to connect the beamflanges together at the vertical tie locationThe tensile capacity of four ½-inch through
bolts exceeds the required tensile strength o20.3 kips for the vertical tie.

Design for Loss of Lateral Support
Loss of lateral support for load bearing wallsand columns necessitates that these loadbearing elements be designed at any floorlevel with an un-supported length (Lu) that istwice the floor height (Equation 1). For CFS
walls, the lateral direction of the wall is thestrong-axis direction of the studs. Therefore,only the strong-axis unsupported length ofthe studs should be doubled when design isperformed to satisfy this requirement.In addition, the loss of the lateral support
in exterior walls subjected to lateral windpressure requires that the connection between
wall sections must be capable of resisting theresulting bending moment; otherwise the
wall system becomes unstable under lateral wind loads. The governing factored loadcombination to design this condition is givenin Equation 2 and the factored design load
would be (0.2W). For the barracks buildingunder consideration, if this connectiondetail is used every third stud (every 4feet), the maximum factored moment to beresisted for a continuous 22 feet, 8 inchesbeam is 15.4 in-kips.
ConclusionsThis article summarizes the progressive
collapse requirements in UFC 4-010-01and UFC 4-023-03 as it relates to mid-riseconstruction using CFS load bearing walls.
A worked design example for a four-storybarracks building with CFS load bearing
walls and hollowcore precast concrete slabsassigned LLOP has been used to demonstratethat all the tie forces requirements canbe achieved through existing structuralelements of the building or added mechanicalconnections. Special requirements such as
loss of lateral support in exterior walls have
also been discussed. Design details have beenproposed for all the tie forces requirementsand special requirements. If CFS load bearing
walls are used with other floor systems (suchas composite steel deck or CFS joists), someof the presented design details will needto be adjusted accordingly; however, thesame method of achieving the tie forcesrequirements would still apply.▪
