Recent advancements in the design and construction of steel-concrete composite structural steels have transformed the building and infrastructural work. It is important for researchers and practitioners to stay abrest of these developments in view of the huge opportunities presented in infrastructure construction in Singapore and the Asia Pacific Region. Steel and composite construction is often adopted in high-rise buildings, large span structures and infrastructural work due to their high structural efficiency with respect to high strength-to-weight ratio as well as their robustness against instability and accidental loads.

This International Symposium serves as a platform for renowned researchers and engineers to disseminate their new findings on advanced design and construction technology of steel and composite structures. International experts from Singapore, Japan, Korea, Hong Kong and China have been invited to share their knowledge and experience in steel and composite design and construction.
