• Composite Construction in Steel and Concrete V contains over 60 papers summarizing the worldwide state-of-the-art in composite construction. These papers were presented at the fifth international conference on Composite Construction in Steel and Concrete held at Kruger National Park in South Africa on July 18-23, 2004. The conference consisted of panel and informal discussions dealing with all aspects of composite construction, ranging from fundamental mechanisms and analytical tools to computational and design methodologies. The topics discussed include: composite bridges; innovative composite systems; composite slabs, floors, and columns; composite structural systems and connections; practical applications; shear studs and connectors; fire resistance; and seismic behavior and design. This proceedings will be beneficial to structural engineers and anyone interested and involved with composite construction.

• Proceedings of the sixth International Conference on Composite Construction in Steel and Concrete held at the Devil?s Thumb Ranch in Tabernash, Colorado, July 20?24, 2008. Sponsored by Engineering Conferences International; the Structural Engineering Institute of ASCE. This collection contains 63 technical papers representing the state-of-the-art in composite construction worldwide. Topics include: composite bridges, composite slabs, shear connectors, composite columns, innovative composite structural systems, fire and seismic resistance of composite structural systems, and practical applications. These papers will be valuable to structural engineers and allied professionals engaged in construction with steel and concrete composites.
