Bi-Steel Steel-Concrete-Steel Sandwich Construction
Composite Construction in Steel and Concrete IV, 2002Steel/concrete/steel sandwich construction combines structural efficiency with robustness, but has been difficult to construct. The Bi-Steel T M composite addresses these difficulties by using shear connectors extending from plate to plate to create semi-rigid panels. The structural behaviour of the composite is described with its relevance to design.

Sustainable steel construction
Journal of Constructional Steel Research, 2006Abstract This paper discusses the importance of construction to the three elements of sustainable development, namely economic growth, social progress and effective protection of the environment. The paper goes on to identify the issues facing construction in meeting the sustainable development agenda; these include efficient use of natural resources,

Journal AWWA, 1928
In the earliest records of civilization we find that supplying water to communities was one of the great engineering problems. In King Solomon's time extensive reservoirs in the form of pools were constructed for that purpose. It was during that time, also, we learn from the Bible, that the first artificers of metals were mentioned.

Electroplated constructional steels
Metal Science and Heat Treatment of Metals, 19601. Low-melting electrodeposits of Cd or Cd and Zn reduce considerably the ductile properties of the various constructional steels at temperatures above 200°C. The effect of a zinc coating was considerably weaker under these conditions. The coatings did not affect the impact toughness of the material. 2.

Engineering Journal, 1969
For the past few years a team of researchers, architects and engineers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology have directed their efforts at finding methods for reducing the cost of multistory steel-frame construction. This research, which has been sponsored by the United States Steel Corporation, was initially directed to examine the structural ...

Engineering for Steel Construction
Engineering Journal, 1984Structural engineers are increasingly aware of the importance of details and connections in steel structures. These are not only the key to economy but also may be the source of trouble. For this reason, AISC has just released a new 370-pg. textbook— Engineering for Steel Construction —for the advanced detailer and design engineer.

Breguet All‐Steel Construction
Aircraft Engineering and Aerospace Technology, 1930CONSTRUCTORS of metal aeroplanes since 1910, Messrs. Breguet have recently turned out a new machine which represents a complete breakaway from accepted practice. After acquiring a thorough experience of light alloy construction in the past ten years with their world‐known Breguet 19, they have been led to reconsider the problem of design from the very ...

Duralumin and Steel Construction
Aircraft Engineering and Aerospace Technology, 1932THE Westland Aircraft Co., of Yeovil, is one of the firms whose entry into the aircraft industry dates back to the times when a few enthusiasts were trying to prove it possible to fly with a heavier‐than‐air machine, and Mr. Bruce, the managing director, was one of the early pioneers of this movement.
