Future development of using structural steel orcomposite structures in Hong KongInstead of building very large and complex building usingcomposite manner, which resulted to very high cost inconstruction, the following ways may be adopted in orderto achieve more cost effective application of technology infuture.1. Use more simple and straight forward design like regular steelframe structure in grid layout2. Use more standardized components such as universal sections,lattice trusses or prefabricated standard sections in the design3. Apply more to other types of building structure/construction asin many developed country like Japan, USA, or even Korea andTaiwan4. Forming hybrid structure with other prefabricated elements
