Abstract
The testing of a two-span, one-bay, two-storey, full-scale, composite frame is described. Details are presented of the rest arrangements, in strumentation used to provide detailed test histories and the observed modes of failure. A full examination of the results, including compar isons with predicted behaviour and implications for the design of comp osite frames is provided in a companion paper.
