摘要：	Abstract Numerical investigation and design of cold-formed high-strength steel (CFHSS) diamond bird-beak (DBB) T- and X-joints are presented in this paper. The 0.2% proof stress of braces and chords was 960 MPa. Tests of CFHSS DBB T- and X-joints undergoing compression loads were carried out by the authors. The test results were used to develop accurate finite element (FE) models in this study. A comprehensive FE parametric study was then performed using the verified FE models. The nominal strengths predicted from the literature and European code were compared to the joint failure strengths and ultimate capacities of 244 DBB T- and X-joints specimens, including 224 FE specimens investigated in this work. The failure of DBB T- and X-joints specimens at chord crown locations was identified as the dominant failure mode. It has been shown that the design provisions given in the literature and European code are unsuitable and uneconomical for the cold-formed S960 steel grade DBB T- and X-joints investigated in this study. Hence, accurate, less dispersed, and reliable design equations are proposed in this work, using two design approaches, to predict the joint failure strengths and ultimate capacities of the investigated DBB T- and X-joints.
