The Direct Strength Method (DSM) design rules for cold-formed steel members have been incorporated recently into the North American specification for the design of cold-formed steel structural members (AISI S100-12) and the Australian cold- formed steel structures standard (AS/NZS 4600:2005). The method covers the design of structures with and without holes subjected to compression and bending and without holes for shear. Recent research has extended the DSM to the design of beams with holes predominantly in shear. This paper reviews the DSM design guidelines for perforated members in compression and bending and the latest research on the DSM for perforated beams in shear.
