Abstract:
Composite construction has been used in industry for decades due to superior load
carrying capacity of the members compared with traditional reinforced concrete
construction. A composite column is a structural member that uses a combination of
concrete incorporating structural steel shapes, pipes or tubes with or without reinforcing
steel to provide adequate load carrying capacity to axial loads or a combination of axial
loads and bending moments. The interactive and integral behaviour between the concrete
and structural steel makes the composite column a very cost effective and structurally
efficient member.
