Cold-Formed Steel Codes and Standards
This wiki (editable page) was created so that a large group of people could contribute to developing a list of the cold-formed steel codes and standards that are in use around the world. To aid in the development of this list Ben Schafer (schafer@jhu.edu) sent an initial email to members of the following organizations: CFSEI, SSRC TG 13, ASCE-SEI CFS, AISI-COS, AISI-COFS.

Please add information about any country that you know information about the current cold-formed steel specifications in use below. The following divisions for countries is based on
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries, any such division is flawed to begin with, but provides a means to organize the results. Feel free to add any notes you would like as well. Some countires which are listed below were of particular interest to the initial group forming this list. Your help is much appreciated.
