Composite steel construction is characterised by the interaction of steel and concrete in the same or adjacent cross-section. Combining the specific properties of these two building materials leads to highly load-bearing and at the same time economically producible components. In addition, there are advantages in terms of fire resistance and room closure. As early as the 1930s, large-scale trials made it possible to utilise this combination. In the first years of reconstruction after the war, the desire to make economical use of the limited availability of steel, including the use of old steel from war-damaged buildings, led to a renaissance of composite construction.
The reinforcement of existing steel structures also played a major role here. While at that time the focus was limited to the modulus of elasticity-controlled and only partial addition of load-bearing capacities in the elastic range, for some time now new approaches have been added that enable optimum utilisation of the materials used and have thus led to an independent construction method: Consideration of plastic reserves with large load-bearing capacity of the structural elements with small dimensions; favourable deformation and stability behaviour as well as high fire resistance, e.g. even with only rolled sections set in concrete with steel surfaces left freely accessible; typified and prefabricated structural elements while retaining or gaining steelwork-like connections and assembly techniques. Experimental and analytical investigations have contributed to the current state of composite technology, which have been sustainably promoted in Germany by the Studiengesellschaft für Anwendungstechnik von Eisen und Stahl e.V. (Study Association for Application Technology of Iron and Steel) and carried out with a focus on the Institute for Structural Engineering, Ruhr University Bochum, Prof.Dr.-Ing. In addition to the classic areas of industrial and building construction, composite elements with their clear advantages over pure steel or reinforced concrete structures are increasingly being used in other areas (e.g. residential construction) due to their great design freedom and short construction deadlines. In order to promote this area of application in particular, problems still had to be clarified which were investigated in experiments, the results of which are made available to the professional world in this final report. They provide in-depth knowledge of the adhesion and sliding mechanisms as a function of the surface condition including surface treatment (e.g. coatings) and the existing concrete cover. Finally, the investigations of I-pillars in a steel fibre composite, with welded studs or only with end dowels as a bonding agent show such good results that intensive further investigation of these possibilities also appears desirable for other composite elements.

P 08.1 - Load-bearing behaviour of steel columns in combination with concrete (hollow sections) This paper contains the calculation and design of concrete-lined hollow section columns made of structural steel under compression and uniaxial bending. After a brief introduction, Section 2 summarises international research work in this field. In Section 3, a calculation programme is developed as an accurate numerical method. Section 4 contains interaction relations for the ultimate limit state for the whole range between centric compression and pure bending. Many results obtained with the described calculation programme and the interaction curves are compared with each other and with available test results; very good agreement can almost always be observed.

P 08.1-2 - Fire behaviour of concrete-filled hollow steel sections and open steel sections with concrete encasement The aim of the present work was to record and evaluate fire tests carried out to date on concrete-filled hollow steel sections and open steel sections with concrete encasement and to draw up a test programme based on the results to date. During the research carried out - particularly in Germany and France - it was established that specific tests have only been carried out recently on hollow steel sections filled with concrete; tests on open steel sections with concrete encasement, on the other hand, were carried out more than 25 years ago, i.e. the status of the latter constructions is virtually unchanged compared with [1]. The recording and evaluation of existing fire test results therefore only covered hollow steel sections. Results from Germany (Federal Institute for Materials Testing (BAM), Berlin), France (Centre Scientifique et Technique du BAtiment (CSTB), Paris, and Centre Technique Industriel de la Construction Metallique (CTICM), Metz) and Great Britain (Fire Research Station (FRS), Boreham Wood) were used for this purpose. The publication [1] served as the source for the German test data. The results of the tests carried out in Great Britain and some of the tests carried out in France were taken from correspondence provided by the Studiengesellschaft für Anwendungstechnik von Eisen und Stahl e.V. (Study Association for Application Technology of Iron and Steel). The latter information is incomplete and is essentially limited to the tested profiles, their load and the fire resistance duration achieved. Other important details such as the quality of the steel and concrete and the knee lengths of the tested columns are only available in isolated cases. In particular, the above-mentioned sources lack temperature data. The test data taken from the correspondence can therefore only be analysed to a limited extent. The tests carried out in France in more recent times - which represent the majority of the tests recorded - are available in the form of standardised short reports from COMTUBE, the client of the above-mentioned investigations. These reports contain the most important data, but no information on the temperature-time curve of the test specimens. Complete test certificates from the CSTB are available for a few fire tests. Efforts to obtain complete test certificates from COMTUBE for all recent tests carried out in France were unfortunately unsuccessful. As already mentioned, most of the data collected is based on fire tests carried out in France. After an initial review and preliminary evaluation of the available results, the author undertook an information trip to the CSTB in Paris and CTICM in Metz in order to complete the collected data and to clarify open questions - in particular with regard to the static and thermal test conditions. Finally, it should be noted that the fire tests on concrete-filled hollow steel sections carried out on behalf of COMTUBE in France are continuing, so that further information can be expected in the form of the above-mentioned short reports. The present report is based on the status of September 1975 (last recorded test on 11 September 1975 at the CSTB). Publication: 1975 Authors: Prof. Dr.-Ing. K. Roik, Dipl.-Ing. R. Bergmann, Dr.-Ing.

P 06 - Steel construction alternative for the university action programme in NRW The state of North Rhine-Westphalia is planning to build 5 universities in the cities of Duisburg, Essen, Wuppertal, Siegen and Paderborn. On 4 January 1972, this decision was announced at a press conference by the Minister of Finance, the details of which can be found in the appendix. The planning was entrusted to the State Building Office II - ZPH - in Münster, under the direction of the Government Building Director Dirksmeyer. He and his staff developed ground plan systems, section and elevation systems as well as the associated building services for institutes as multi-storey buildings to be erected in all the university cities mentioned. For the first time, the decision was taken and realised to construct and design a very large volume of buildings in a standardised way. Parliament and the government thus gave the construction industry the opportunity to standardise and optimise building systems. The construction industry will now have to prove to what extent it wants to use this opportunity and whether it was serious in claiming that cataloguing systems is only worthwhile if very large construction volumes are to be processed.
