ABSTRACT
There are different methods of construction for building structure. The most popular
conventional structures used are reinforced cement concrete structures, pure steel
structures and Timber Structures. In the modern age the rapid growth in population
and continuous influx of people from rural to metros; buildings are constructed on a
large scale and with great Architectural requirement. With the advancement in
knowledge of civil engineers RCC and steel construction came in a great boom with
the start of 20th century.
Today use of prestressed concrete construction is done for quick construction. The
multi-storied building with moment resisting frames; moment resisting frames along
with shear walls are the most popular type of construction today. But along same time
the composite construction also progressed from nineteenth century.
In this present study a new type of structure is introduced which involves use of
composite members. To reduce the construction time, material quantity and cost the
composite members are used. The composite members here mean use of steel sections
as structural steel along with timber. Here by using composite members for
miscellaneous Architectural building / light framed structure, lot of saving has been
done in material, construction time and cost. It saves approximately 20-25% cost of
structure if conventional type is used. Composite members used are Structural steel
and solid timber compare to conventional steel or RCC members.

INTORDUCTION
1.0 General
The extent to which the components of a building structure should embody all the
steel construction, be constructed entirely in reinforced concrete, in timber construction,
or be of composite construction depends on circumstances. However engineers are
increasingly designing composite and mixed building systems of structural steel and
reinforced concrete or structural steel and timber to produce more efficient structures
when compared to designs using either material alone. Timber and steel composite
members mainly use for light frame structures.
The light frame structures (Timber Structures) are more susceptible to damage due
to earthquake and heavy wind. Due to this fact the modern techniques of construction
involves use of moment resisting frames. The use composite members suggested in this
report may prove to be seismic and wind resistant over conventional technique used for
building construction.
The main objective of the present study is to capture the modified performance of
the building using composite member against regular members and its comparison with
conventional steel/ timber building structure. For this one miscellaneous light frame
building structure near Pune is considered. It is observed that the structure with purely
steel structure may have more efficient than timber structure, only when the overall form
of building is regular and it is possible to use bracing at least along the longer direction
without hampering the aesthetics of building. In India mostly buildings are irregular in
shapes due to which aesthetic requirements of building cannot be fulfilled by only steel
construction. Hence, a comparative study of Structural Steel and composite member
construction is carried out in this report. This includes:
a. A comparative study of Structural Steel and composite member structure.
b. To capture the modified performance of the building using composite member
against regular members and its comparison with conventional steel/ timber
building structure.
c. To check the structure for strength and deflection using conventional member
structural frame
d. To check the structure for strength and deflection using composite member
structural frame.
e. To check the cost reduction by using composite structure in place of conventional
structure.

Concrete filled column is used for bridge piers subject to impact from traffic, columns to
support storage tanks, decks of railways, column in high-rise building and as piles for
foundations. In concrete filled hollow sections, the longitudinal reinforcement may be not
necessary, if design for fire resistance is not required.
Partly concreted encased columns have high fire resistance, due to which the concrete
part prevents the inner steel parts (structural steel as well as reinforcing bars) from
heating up too fast. Another significant advantage is that some of the steel surfaces
remain exposed and can be used for connection to other beams.
1.5.2 Steel Timber composite members
Dynamic machines are preferably located close to grade to minimize the elevation
difference between the machine dynamic forces and the center of gravity of the machine
foundation system (Fig. 1.6). The ability to use such foundation primarily depends on the
quality of near surface soils. Block foundation are nearly always designed as rigid
structures. The dynamic response of a rigid block foundation depends only on the
dynamic load, foundation’s mass, dimensions, and soil characteristics.
01– Roofing;
08 – Vapour control
Condensation
Air can hold moisture - the warmer the air, the more moisture it can hold. If moist air is
cooled by contact with cold surfaces, such as walls, windows or mirrors, the moisture
condenses into water droplets (condensation).
Disadvantage of putting Metal Deck directly on Rafter is, there will be condensationdue
to moisture. For outside area this issue will be resolved due to sun light, but for inside, it
will have issue because of Air Conditioning.
For initial period after construction, Condensation will not create much problem.
This problem will start may be after 2~3 years when actual properties of wood takes
place.
(Hidden Connections and Discreet Detailing to Conceal the true Structural Support
Provided by the Steel)
The building structure considered here in study must be designed to withstand all
the forces that may be imposed on it during the service life span of the structure. The
directions of the forces applied on the structure are shown in next sections. Actual loading
on the structure may vary from machine to machine. However, the type of loads acting on
the turbine foundation may generally be defined as shown in the following subsections.
LITERATURE REVIEW
2.0 General
Many researchers have been carried out on composite construction. Some of these are
carried out individually on composite columns. Different compositions of materials are
considered while considering composite elements structure, for example RCC + Steel,
Timber + Steel etc. While some of these are carried out on whole high rise buildings, and
some on other miscellaneous structures. Here few of them are enumerated as below;
The present work consists of comparison among RCC, Steel and Steel concrete
composite (G+30) Storey commercial building structure. The commercial building
considered is situated in earthquake zone IV. For modeling of Composite, Steel and
R.C.C. structures, ETABS software is used and the results are compared. Equivalent
Static Method of Analysis is used.
As the results show the Steel option is better than R.C.C. But the Composite option
for high rise building is best suited among all three options. The reduction in the dead
weight of Composite framed structure is 30 % with respect to R.C.C. framed structure.
Axial forces in column have been reduced. Bending moments in secondary beams also
reduced. As the sizes of the steel members reduces about 25 % in main beams and about
60 % in secondary beams.
The slenderness effect of the member is taken into account by using the Moment
Magnification Method. The proposed procedure was compared with test results of 12
square and three L-shaped reinforced concrete columns subjected to short-term axial load
and biaxial bending, and also some experimental results available in the literature for
composite columns compared with the theoretical results obtained by the proposed
procedure and a good degree of accuracy was obtained.
The theoretical and experimental results show that the compressive strength of
concrete and its corresponding compressive strain are the most effective parameters on
the ultimate strength capacity of column members. The shape of the concrete stress–strain
relationship has little effect on the ultimate strength capacity of the column members.
In this study, to address the global the environmental issues, the urgent need of
using timber in the building structure field to contribute towards reforestation. In the
building structure field, direct use of wood as structural timber in large buildings is not
possible as it’s too weak for the same. Hence, development of new structural system
using timber steel composite is studied here and categorized based on performances.
The studying the contact joint for structural steel –Timber composite structure the
frame joints with different load bearing capacities were categorized. Here considered that
bending strength of composite structure reaches maximum when timber fails/ fractures
under ultimate tensile stress. The following fig 2.3 shows one of the composite structure
frame system considered.
In this project, the aforementioned requirements are explored and the ability of the
hybrid system to perform was evaluated. The potential environmental benefits were
investigated, and a comparative study was performed to gauge the relative performances
of the timber and concrete systems. The comparative study looked at how the amount of
steel required in the frame, the loads to foundations, the cost, and the environmental
impact changed when making the substitution for a range of situations.
The analysis for costs found that using timber would be a more expensive option,
mostly due to the relative cost of the slabs themselves (roughly four times the cost of
concrete for a given floor area).
The analysis for the above found that use of timber steel composite leads to
economic and ecologic benefits as the construction height optimization. The earthquake
resistance can be improved and the assembling can be executed more efficiently. Steel
reinforced timber structures are light, fast and clean.
In the first case study, research regarding hybrid structural systems and
connections for multistoried laminated veneer lumber (timber) buildings located in
earthquake prone areas was carried out. According to research prefabricated structural
timber elements were joined using unbonded post-tensioning tendons so that the opening
and closing of an existing gap accommodates seismic demand during an earthquake.
In the second case study, descriptive study regarding the hybrid timber-steel retail
structure-Sainsbury’s Dartmouth was carried out. Different challenges faced during
design stages were noted.
The present study is an effort to investigate the viability of using Steel and Carbon
fiber reinforced polymer as reinforcements in glued laminated timber beams. This study
specifically focuses on the investigation of different configurations to come up with an
optimum reinforcement arrangement which maximizes the stiffness/strength properties of
timber beams. This divided in three different ways to investigate the properties of timber
beams.
Second FE model is prepared which find out the interfacial shear stresses in the
glue line between timber and steel/ fibre reinforcement. Also, it predicts the de-lamination
possibility due to adhesive failure in shear.
Third full scaled timber steel beams were prepared based on the results of analysis
and tested in bending for analytical results verification.
This study article investigates to set the standards for designing of flitch beam as
this was the time when flitch plates are used only to reinforce the wooden beams. In the
beginning of that era flitch beams were not used for any new construction, as efficient use
of steel in the composite section was not done. During that period it’s beginning of
common practice to use flitch section of timber beams as it’s difficult to get and use large
sections of timber for houses. Based on the experiences of the concerned engineers,
Timber design handbook and AISC code of steel construction author has proposed
simplified procedure to design the flitch beam which will help in standardization.
Through use of standardize procedure for design and analysis, it’s helpful to
optimize the flitch beam sizing. This also helps to set the standards for designing of flitch
beam and make efficient use of steel in the composite section was not done.
With reference to studies enlisted above from many researchers, here are the findings
as below;
METHODOLOGY
The design has to provide detailed knowledge of the static and dynamic behavior
of the structure and of the load transfer mechanisms (e.g. from the roof to beams, beams
to columns, columns to base raft/foundation and further to the substructure / soil). It has
also to provide a deeper understanding of the governing forces and environmental effects
for studies of the light framed structures.
(ii) After all time-dependent displacement (i.e. creep deformation, ucreep) has taken place;
this is called the final deformation: ufin.
Deformation is calculated in two different ways, depending on the creep behaviour of
the structure:
1. Structures comprising members, components and connections having the same
creep behaviour:-
Creep behaviour in timber and wood-related products is a function of several factors,
and to simplify the design process the assumption is made in EC5 that when subjected to
a permanent load over the lifetime of a building, the instantaneous deflection (uinst) and
the creep deflection (ucreep) are related as follows,
Where,
kdef = a deformation factor whose value is dependent on the type of material being
stressed as well as its moisture content.
Values for the factor have been derived for timber and wood-based materials at defined
environmental conditions when subjected to constant loading at the SLS over the design
life, and are given in EC5, Table 3.2. The environmental conditions are referred to as
service class 1, 2 or 3 and values for kdef for timber and some wood-related products at
these conditions are given in Table 2.10.
For structures or members complying with the above conditions the final deformation,
ufin, can then be written as,
ufin = u(inst+creep)
Where,
u(inst+creep) = The deformation derived from a linear elastic analysis of the structure
subjected to the instantaneous loading condition and based on the reduced
stiffness properties.
exists. Consequently, when calculating the design stress in a section, e.g. flexural, axial,
shear, etc., it is to be assumed that elastic behaviour will apply up to the failure condition.
Where EC5 considers that plastic behaviour can be taken into account to enhance member
strength, this is incorporated into the relevant strength validation rules given in the code.

Here, two option for concept design of light framed structures. First option will
base on purely wooden structure framing design. Check the overall feasibility/stability by
considering the limit state of strength and for limit strength of serviceability of
superstructure for various loading condition as mention above. If the purely wooden
member will satisfy the requirement base on various codal provisions then it will be
possible to use purely wooden member only, if not then the type 2 will proposed.
To make all superstructures as simple and feasible for erecting and design point of view,
it may need additional planned bracing.
CASE STUDY
4.1 Introduction
To study the cost comparative analysis design of composite member structure and
conventional structure for light framed structure, a residential building project at
Lonawala, Pune is considered. This building is light framed structural with luxurious villa
type. It is located at the foot of Tung fort means hilly area. This building has made up of
mainly 5 parts; Living Area, 2 Bedroom areas, Kitchen area and large pool deck or
swimming pool area. Each part has divided into superstructure and substructure. For
superstructure above plinth level, it is requirement that the entire framed member should
have compact in size and having looks of Timber member. Therefore options for
superstructure are proposed as below;
Conventional pure Timber framed and along with timber sheeted roof can be used
to get the effect.
Conventional structural Steel framed and roof supporting system can be designed.
But for timber effect, timber sections should be connected to steel
Hybrid structural system made of Steel Timber composite member which gives
both i.e. timber looks and cost saving in material.
Substructure to be constructed by RCC as it is below ground and sliding/ sloppy area.
The general arrangement is as per shown in subsequent sections. The substructure
proposed is of RCC frame structure. Analysis & Design is carried out as per Indian
Standards as per IS 456. For conventional type framed superstructure made up of
structural steel, analysis & design is carried out as per Indian Standards as per IS 800. For
hybrid structural system made up of steel timber composite elements framed
superstructure, analysis & design is carried out as per Indian Standards as per IS 800. The
Superstructure is modeled as a three-dimensional space frame in which the columns &
beams are idealized as 3-D beam elements with six degrees of freedom at each node.
Roof supporting structure consists of Sheeting, purlins and Rafters. Structure is analyzed
& designed for various loads & combinations of loads as stated in further sections.
The type of structure studied here is considered as light framed structural building, as
there are no multi-storeys laid above. Normally these types of structures are not seen,
hence considered as miscellaneous type. For construction of such building, choice of
structure become more critical, as conventional type takes more time for construction.
Hence, it’s more logical to find the midway and more suitable to choose cost saving
technique. The configuration of the building aesthetics itself imposes the type of the
structure supporting it. In the study there is a complicated structure which is supported by
conventional type and hybrid type structural arrangement.
It consists of roof sheeting consists of arrangement as shown in fig. 4.1 above. Profile
sheeting is supported by purlins, above profile sheeting vapour barrier and insulation will
be provided to reduce thermal effect. Above profile metal sheet synthetic mesh is
provided and top zinc roof panel will be provided.
The roof system is supported by purlins and rafter. Rafter is supported by beams and
beam transfers the loads to props or columns i.e. vertical or inclined member. In
conventional practice all these members are made up of steel or timber member. In other
case means hybrid system these members made up of steel timber composite.
For this light frame miscellaneous structure, analysis is done by using STAAD Pro
software to check conventional type structure. This is followed by designing these
members in STAAD Pro by using IS 800. Welded connections are considered for the
frame. The designed steel members are additionally connected by timber sections to
follow the aesthetics. For composite frame analysis SCIA software is used and EC5 Euro-
code is used. Here, wind load considered as governing than seismic due to mass
consideration. Analysis and design is performed using two approaches: (1) by using
conventional type structure (2) by using hybrid or composite type structure. Support
conditions considered as partially fixed.
Dead Load
The self-weight of structure is considered under dead load. Additional 10% of dead
load is increase by considering the effect of connection plates and fasteners.

5.1 General
In the present study results are obtained for Conventional approach and
Composite structure approach have different cross sections according to design for
different load combinations. The cases considered and results obtained are discussed as
below:
Table 5.1 and Table 5.2 show the results obtained for frequency and amplitude for
various damping ratios respectively. From Table 5.1 and Table 5.2 it is observed that the
change in the damping ratio has no effect on natural frequency and amplitude in both the
directions of Turbo Generator foundation whereas minor changes observed on horizontal
deflection from Table 5.3.
Overall from the analysis it is observed that dead and dynamic loads of Turbine Generator
foundation are dominating as compared to the seismic forces. Thus the change in
damping ratio does not affect the frequency variation. Whereas for each increment in the
damping ration the horizontal deflection decreases for 9% to 10%.
