Abstract

In the recent years, composite construction has gained its popularity due to achieving economy and providing higher sustainability compared to conventional steel structure or reinforced concrete structure. In various modern technologies, strengthened as well as sustainable materials are used in the present era for advanced infrastructure. This paper comes with a solution for several issues by introducing steel-concrete composite structure connected by shear connector. Strength of concrete is an important parameter for composite construction. In this paper, an attempt has been made to review the response of changing concrete property in composite beams. Constituent materials, their types and strength of concrete are the main parameters taken for this current paper. Concrete is highly efficient in compression whereas steel in tension. Thus with the use of these two materials, structure will become highly efficient in tension as well as compression. Steel concrete composite structure can be used in many applications in practical field but usually bridges and multistoried commercial buildings are the most used type of composite structure due to high load carrying capacity and reduced cost of maintenance.
