Abstract
Presents the results of a study carried out in 2003-4. Provides information on new structural systems in steel, concrete and composite construction, and reviews the cost and construction programmes of all the construction systems, leading to updated costs and conclusions. Covers the influence of the choice of structural system on the non-frame elements such as foundations, cladding and services, which can have a major effect on overall costs. Two generic buildings are considered.
