Composite Construction: Introduction & Design | Civil Engineering

In this article we will discuss about:- 1. Introduction to Composite Construction 2. Design Principles for Composite Construction 3. I.S. Recommendations. Introduction to Composite Construction: Composite construction consists of providing monolithic action between (i) Prefabricated units like steel beams, precast reinforced or prestressed concrete beams and (ii) Cast-in-situ concrete. This method is found to provide a greater structural efficiency compared [...]
