Description: Steel - Concrete - Steel Sandwich Composite Walls covers key aspects of steel - concrete - steel sandwich composite walls including: an analysis and design and their loading carrying capacities when subjected to different loading scenarios e. g. bending shear punching compression in - plane and out - of - plane shear etc.; analyzes the basic resistance of the steel - concrete - steel walls; and covers the use of such structures under particular seismic conditions. Such structures combine the advantages of steel and reinforced concrete structures with wide advantages e. g. it permits prefabrication increases the construction efficiency shortens construction period saves formwork and manpower and provides high resistance to blast and impact loads. Steel - concrete - steel sandwich composite walls as a representative structural element of steel - concrete - steel sandwich structures have been used as the nuclear shielding walls in the new generation nuclear power plant shield tunnels in Japan immersed tunnels ice - resisting walls for Arctic offshore platforms shear walls in high - rise buildings.
