4. Concrete is efficient in
compression and steel in
Tension.
Concrete encasement
restraint and steel against
buckling.
Protection against
corrosion and fire
Steel bring ductility into
the structure.

10. Recommendations
During placement of concrete care should be taken to avoid
overloading the decking or supporting structural members
Heavy transporting equipment, other construction loads
should not be placed on the roof.
Decking Must be checked for load capacity.
After concrete casting, proper curing should be done.

11. Conclusion
Composite construction has proven popular
because it combines structural efficiency with
speed of construction to offer an economic
solution for a wide range of building types.
