A composite construction method that combines the structural benefits of steel and concrete. These members are created by filling hollow steel shapes, such as circular, square, or rectangular tubes, with concrete to enhance strength, ductility, and fire resistance. The sources highlight practical advantages, noting that the steel exterior serves as permanent formwork and prevents concrete spalling while the concrete core inhibits the steel from buckling.
