The "Composite Structures" analyze works whose load-bearing elements consist of the two most common construction materials, steel and reinforced concrete.
With the collaboration of the two materials, the criteria of load capacity, functionality, ductility, and durability over time are optimally satisfied.
Among the significant advantages of composite structures is their widespread use around the world, particularly in areas of high seismic hazard.
The book presents topics on the design of composite beams, slabs of columns, and their connections, with reference to buildings and bridges. It examines limit states of failure and functionality, based on the provisions of Eurocode 4 adapted to the Greek Concrete Code.
Criteria and rules of application are provided for the practical handling of fire protection issues. Each chapter includes both theoretical foundations and a large number of application examples, which contribute to a better understanding of the material.
In its second edition, the book has been significantly revised in most chapters with several additions and improvements.
