The application of Cold-formed steel (CFS) is getting popular in several countries, and this indicates that a good potential of using lightweight materials as an alternative solution to conventional steel. However, there is still a lack of information about joint behavior, particularly composite connections integrated with CFS. This paper presents an isolated joint test of composite joints consisting of concrete slab 100 mm thickness, double lipped channel section used for beam and column, connected by hot-rolled steel gusset plates and bolts. The weakness of the thin plate behavior in the compression zone was reduced by installing the angle stiffener on the web column. Two specimens with the same configuration but with and without seat angle were tested. The experiment results revealed that by the use of seat angle, the moment resistance and stiffness of joints increased with the ratio 1.06 and 1.19, respectively.
