Built-up members are used in many structures, such as compression members of trusses or supporting columns. They are composed from two rolled U-sections or four rolled angles. … They are used in the present study, the aim of which is to elaborate the optimum design of such structural parts.
Bracing Connections involves the bolting of flat, angle, channel, I-section, and hollow section members to to a gusset plate to support the column or other members.

Crane girder: The principal horizontal beams of the crane bridge which supports the trolley and is supported by the end trucks.
Composite columns are a combination of two traditional structural forms: structural steel and structural concrete. As composite columns were generally developed after steel columns and reinforced concrete columns, their design approach could have been based on either steel or concrete design methods.

Composite sections involve more than one shape, made up of more than one material. SkyCiv’s Section Builder can perform calculations for composite shapes that involve stacking one shape on top / to the side of another such as with laminate beams.
A column or pillar in architecture and structural engineering is a structural element that transmits, through compression, the weight of the structure above to other structural elements below. In other words, a column is a compression member
Product Description. Our Z-Purlins are the secondary structural members used to support the roof sheeting / wall cladding. Besides being economical to use, they give an excellent strength- to- weight ratio, thus providing substantial cost savings.
