A simple entity is not reducible to conceptual forms, or conventional designations, nor is it compositely existent entity. |
Some projects feature steel beams that are designed to act compositely with the slab. |
Where steel beams support concrete floor slabs poured onto a metal deck, they can be made to act compositely with the concrete, resulting in considerable economies in the beam sizes. |
Spanning the distance between the bents is a steel beam system built compositely with a structural concrete deck. |
The concrete for each thrust block was placed compositely around a vertical steel frame, the top of which also is visible. |
The end result is a composite column that is very efficient, with steel and concrete acting compositely and sharing the load about equally. |
