Solutions of composite beams encounter some specific problems, such as shrinkage and creep of concrete, cracking of concrete and plasticity of steel, partial interaction of elements or history of erection and loading process. These factors and others affect the distribution of internal forces along the beam, the distribution of stresses along the cross-section and also stiffness and deflection of beams. The goal is to describe and compare methods for analysis of composite steel and concrete beams by more simplified approaches allowed by Eurocode with more advanced techniques. The studies will be carried out on the simply supported and continuous beams designed with respect to Eurocode 1, 2, 3 and 4.
