Abstract This research focuses on the effect of staggered bolted connections on the ultimate tensile capacity and failure modes of the cold-formed steel channel sections connected to the gusset plates. The test program includes two series of 113 channel specimens tested under axial tension with one series containing 52 two-bolted specimens and the other with 61 three-bolted specimens. All the specimens were bolted in the web in a staggered fashion, and the main parameters being investigated are… Expand
