Conclusions
Use reusable steel frame and percast concrete to
reduce site labor, increase productivity and quality
for sustainable construction.
Use composite design for long span beam, compact
floor, smaller column size, and better fire and
structural resistance.
Numerous projects provide illustration of the
benefits of buildable design using composite
construction.
Successful implementation requires close
collaboration and information sharing between
various parties.
