structures consisting of both materials utilize the benefits of structural steel and reinforced concrete. this is already common practice in reinforced concrete in that the steel reinforcement is used to provide steel's tensile strength capacity to a structural concrete member. a commonly seen example would be parking garages. some parking garages are constructed using structural steel columns and reinforced concrete slabs. the concrete will be poured for the foundational footings, giving the parking garage a surface to be built on. the steel columns will be connected to the slab by bolting and/or welding them to steel studs extruding from the surface of the poured concrete slab. pre-cast concrete beams may be delivered on site to be installed for the second floor, after which a concrete slab may be poured for the pavement area. this can be done for multiple stories. a parking garage of this type is just one possible example of many structures that may use both reinforced concrete and structural steel.

the coat of arms of trafford council depicts a griffin on a shield flanked by two unicorns. the line bisecting the shield horizontally symbolises the river mersey running through trafford from east to west and the canals in the borough. the white legs of a lion on a red background represent the parts of trafford previously controlled by the de massey family, while the red body and head of an eagle on a white background represents the areas of trafford previously controlled by the de traffords. both elements were taken from the coats of arms of the respective families. the fist holding bolts of lightning represents stretford and the electrical industry; the cog on the arm represents altrincham's engineering industry. the unicorns stand for sale and altrincham. the oak branches represent urmston and the rural areas of trafford.
