Abstract: Structural steel has many advantages over other construction materials by its high strength and ductility. It has a higher strength to cost ratio in tension and a slightly lower strength to cost ratio in compression when compared with concrete. This paper is intended to evaluate the beam column rolled and cold formed steel connection experimentally by moment resistant connection such as stiffened, un stiffened and splices connection. At the present, in most of the countries, the use of light gauge cold formed steel section has been developed for economical and best seismic performance by different shape of cross sectional area and various types of connections are used. These results to study the seismic performance of cold form steel sections area using various moment resistance connections. Finally the report result the splice connection has best moment resistance connection, seismic resistant of structures, load carrying capacity is high and minimum weight compare with other types of connections. The splice connection has load carrying capacity is high, so we can reduced the size of section and prevent the base shear due to reduced the weight of structures.
Keywords: Cold Formed Steel, Splice Connection, Stiffened Connection, Load Deflection.
