In this paper, it will be assumed that composite construction is achieved when the complete cross-section of a concrete component acts with any steel section to form an integral unit. The term can be applied both to structures comprising steel beams and
to prestressed concrete construction, but it does not apply to conventional reinforced concrete, where large zones of the concrete are considered as having cracked and become ineffective under working conditions.

Structural Engineering in Nigeria

The paper deals with the general geographical and economic characteristics of Nigeria and proceeds to show how the profession of structural engineering is represented in that country. The work of the engineer in the office and in the field is then described and some of the commoner engineering problems encountered in Nigeria are illustrated. The paper concludes with a brief reference to the future of the country and the role of the engineer in its development. A. Brimer
