ABSTRACT

The works have been articulated in following phases of deepening on the investigated materials’ properties and features, and on applicative solutions already utilized by other designers, in order to draw a critic general picture of the state of art and organize search results about technical and technological possibilities and main running researches in the field. Subsequently, designing hypotheses have been formulated, with the aim of proposing a some kind of innovation regarding the utilization of materials themselves; following, we will illustrate two works thoroughly studying the possibilities of combining reinforced concrete with cold-plied steel plates.
