\textbf{Abstract} \\
This is the paper template for the Cold-Formed Steel Research Consortium Colloquium. It comes in two formats, LaTeX and Microsoft Word. This template is required for all papers, and the paper must be provided in PDF format. Provide a brief abstract for your paper, aim for an abstract length between 300-400 words.The abstract should include the objective of the paper, the context in which the work is performed, the methods used in the paper, the basic findings of the work, and perhaps a sense of the future work. Follow normal conventions. Try not to use acronyms or references in the abstract; it should be simple plain text. This paper provides some examples of figures, tables, and equations in this template.

\section{General}
This section discusses the template style for the main body of the paper. It is recommended to aim for an 8 page paper, although no minimum or maximum paper length is required. The main body font is arial / helectiva 10 point font, and 8.5 point font for the figure and table captions. Please adhere to proper academic writing conventions, write clearly, and try not to forget the use of Oxford commas.
This template aims to cover most common scenarios in conference papers, but may not cover all aspects for your specific paper. Please use your best judgement if any modifications are necessary. This template was written with the use of the LaTeX editor \href{https://www.overleaf.com}{\underline{Overleaf}} in mind, which can be accessed free of charge.
\subsection{Page layout}
This template includes the required margins, font styles, and paragraph spacing. Please refrain from modifying the layout.
\subsubsection{Layers}
You may go up to three layers deep in the organization of your paper, using \textit{section}, \textit{subsection}, and \textit{subsubsection} definitions. The formatting and numbering of these sections is included in the template and no further modifications are required.
\subsection{Units}
International system of units (SI) are required, and other unit systems are optional. The suggested format is metric (US imperial optional) such as 2.3 mm (0.091 inch). This includes units in the main body of the paper, tables, and figures.
\section{Figures}
Single column width figures are preferred, as shown in Figure \ref{logo}. Please make sure that font sizes in the figures are no smaller than 8 point. If needed, figures can be full page width using the \textit{figure*} command, as shown in Figure \ref{logo_large}. Use the word ``Figure" to call out a figure in the text.
\begin{figure}
\centering
\includegraphics[width=\columnwidth]{cfsrc_short_colloquium_final.png}
\caption{CFSRC colloquium logo}\vspace*{0pt}
\label{logo}
\end{figure}
% full page width figure
\begin{figure*}
\centering
\includegraphics[width=\linewidth]{cfsrc_short_colloquium_final.png}
\caption{CFSRC colloquium logo large}\vspace*{0pt}
\label{logo_large}
\end{figure*}
\section{Equations}
Include all necessary equations, such as Equation \ref{circle} shown below for a circle:
\begin{equation}
\label{circle}
A=\pi \times r^2
\end{equation}
% Don't add a blank line here or it will add extra spacing after the equation
where $A$ is the area of a circle and $r$ is the radius of a circle. Use the word ``Equation" to call out the equation in the text.
For longer equations which require multilines, you can use the \textit{multline} command and a sample of this is shown in Equation \ref{sample_eq}.
\begin{multline}
\label{sample_eq}
p(x) = 3x^6 + 14x^5y + 590x^4y^2 + 19x^3y^3\\ % double slash where you want to equation to be split
- 12x^2y^4 - 12xy^5 + 2y^6 - a^3b^3
\end{multline}
\section{Tables}
Single column width tables are preferred, as shown in Table \ref{table_small}. Table font size is 8.5 point font, but may be reduced to 8 point font minimum if needed. If the table is too wide to fit in a single column, please use the \textit{table*} command to make the table full page width. Note that this command will place the large table at the top of the next page. Online \href{https://www.tablesgenerator.com/}{\underline{table generators}} are helpful to use.
