Update feature for design of composite column and Beam to IS 11384:2022

Using two materials in beam or column sections enhances structural performance and allows for reduced member sizes. Composite sections exhibit lower deflections under lateral loads such as wind or seismic forces, resulting in reduced damage. Additionally, composite construction is cost-effective, sustainable over the long term, and suitable for widespread global application majorly for industrial short term project duration over RCC construction.
