Design of Hybrid Concrete Buildings

This design guide is intended to provide the structural engineer with essential guidance for the design of structures that combine precast and in-situ concrete in a hybrid concrete structure. It introduces the options available for hybrid concrete structures, and goes on to explain the key considerations in the design of this type of structure.

Bearings, interface details, consideration of movement, composite action, robustness and the effects of prestressing are all explained in this guide and design examples are included where appropriate. The importance of overall responsibility and construction aspects are also described.
