This document summarizes research on the pull-through failure performance of light gauge steel roof battens under simulated cyclonic wind loading. Testing was conducted on 0.55mm and 0.75mm battens using static and cyclic loading regimes. Results showed that static capacity was lower than cyclic capacity due to different failure criteria. Cyclic capacity was also found to be higher than predicted by current design equations. Thinner battens were more vulnerable to cyclic loading and saw less benefit from higher loading rates compared to thicker battens. The study provides recommendations to better predict batten capacities under wind loading.
