Composite Construction

Composite construction is the construction of structures in which two or more materials are used. Regarding structural engineering, composite construction is a construction where two materials are bound together in a technical manner such that both the materials act as a single unit to carry and transfer the load. The motives of composite construction are to increase the structural strength, make structures more aesthetic, and provide a sustainable environment.
