Cold-formed steel (CFS) sections have gained popularity in the recent years primarily because of their high strength-to-weight ratio and faster constructions. They are manufactured by forming plane sheets made of steel in ambient temperature and the same used in different shapes as per the requirement criteria. This present study assesses the axial capacity of CFST columns against current design standards. The column strength predicted by using the Effective width Method (EVM) as per AISI S100-16, 2016 and IS 801-1975.
