Blast and Progressive Collapse Design of Cold-Formed Steel Structures
Speaker: Nabil A. Rahman, Ph.D., P.E.
February 9, 2012
Orlando, FL
This presentation introduces the concepts and methods of analysis and design of cold-formed
steel structures against blast and progressive collapse. The presentation focuses
on the design requirements for cold-formed steel mid-rise construction and curtain wall
framing in the Department of Defense projects per the Unified Facilities Criteria (UFC) 4-
010-01 and 4-023-03. The under-development ASCE Standard for Blast Protection of
Buildings will be also discussed. A case study with computer analysis and design
calculations will be presented.
Argos Systems would like to congratulate Winchester Homes for winning a gold level 2011 Constructech Vision Award. Argos Systems is also honored to be named as a technology enabler, along with CG Visions, for providing tools to help Winchester Homes achieve their goals.
The new Utility Hole Generator add-on module brings a new level of efficiency and accuracy to building fabrication. Use electrical and plumbing lines to send hole punching information directly to manufacturing equipment. Holes are generated in wood and steel framing, as well as, sheathing. The Utility Hole Generator,
in conjunction with an NC link, allows the hole data to be sent to automated saws, steel stud roll formers, and sheathing routers.

What is Vertex BD?
Vertex BD is an advanced building design software for wood and cold-formed steel framed construction. This stand alone software application maximizes productivity and accuracy by generating data from ONE SOURCE:
architectural layouts
interior & exterior elevations
structural layouts
fabrication drawings
material reports
manufacturing data
rendered images
3D models
Vertex BD features the industry leading automatic house options system and the most adaptable wood and cold-formed steel framing generators available, saving countless hours and drastically reducing material waste. Manufacturing data may be transferred directly to automated equipment. Material reports may be exported to project management systems.
Argos Systems provides software sales and rentals, onsite training, customization services, and software support and maintenance for our parent company, Vertex Systems.
