本报告是对1986年8月版AISI冷成型钢结构构件设计规范的评论的参考文件。本报告中开发的统一设计方法包括受压构件、柱、梁和梁柱的处理。该方法包括局部稳定的受压元件，以及在整体失效时处于局部后屈曲范围内的受压元件。整体失效模式包括弯曲、侧向和扭转-弯曲。在分析和参数研究的基础上，对开发的统一设计方法进行了检查。仔细进行的测试的结果也被用于验证提议的方法。

The report is a reference document to the Commentary on the August 1986 edition of the AISI Specification for the Design of Cold-Formed Steel structural Members. The unified design approach developed in this report includes the treatments of compression elements, columns, beams and beam columns. The approach covers with compression elements that are locally stable as well as those in the post-local buckling range at overall failure. The overall failure modes include flexual, lateral and torsional-flexural. The unified design approach developed was checked on the basis of analytical and parametric studies. The results of carefully conducted tests were also used in the verification of the proposed approach.
