Reinforced concrete column and steel beam(RCS) frame system is economical and high strength composite structure. Studies about the RCS frame have been progressed in USA and Japan since "80s. In Korea, it has been studied since "90s. In this research, existing connection details of the RCS frame and connection details recently developed are analyzed. RCS connections are categorized into two types, so called “through-beam” type and “through-column” type. We subdivided RCS connection details into several types, and analyzed these into effectiveness and frequency of use. In RCS connection detail, Diaphragm and confinement components are essential. Therefore, these essential components have to be developed and concerned in priority.
