Abstract

The presentation will provide an overview of the composite structures standard and HERA composite design tools.
AS/NZS 2327-composite structures standard: HERA is leading the process of collecting errors in AS/NZS 2327 Amd1 and proposing a commentary to submit to Standard Australia for final review.
Composite column design (FRISCC): A windows PC application to enable ULS and Fire design of concrete- steel composite columns in accordance to AS/NZS 2327.
Composite beam software: HERA has been involved in the development of a new integrated composite and slab software. This cloud-based application will enable you to design composite beams and slabs to AS/NZS2327:2017 Amd1.
