Composite Structures of Steel and Concrete
Composite Structures of Steel and Concrete Book By R. P. Johnson
This volume provides an introduction to the theory and design of compos-
ite structures of steel and concrete. Readers are assumed to be familiar
with the elastic and plastic theories for the analysis for bending and shear
of cross-sections of beams and columns of a single material, such as
structural steel, and to have some knowledge of reinforced concrete. No
previous knowledge is assumed of the concept of shear connection within
a member composed of concrete and structural steel, nor of the use of
profiled steel sheeting in composite slabs. Shear connection is covered in
depth in Chapter 2 and Appendix A, and the principal types of composite
member in Chapters 3, 4 and 5.
