The present invention is an integral composite structural (ICS) material (10) comprising an open metal structure (20) having at least one external side and internal surfaces defining a plurality of open shapes (40) with a ceramic matrix composite (50) bonded to at least one external side and the surfaces of at least a substantial portion of the plurality of open shapes (40) and occupying at least a substantial portion of the plurality of open shapes (40). The open metal structure (10), independent of the ceramic matrix composite (50), has a total metal volume percent in the range of about 10% to about 90%, with no dimension of any open shape (40) being greater than about 3/4 inch. The ceramic matrix layer (50) covers a substantial portion of at least one external side of the open metal structure (20). At least one external side of the metal portion (20) of the ICS material is bonded with a ceramic matrix composite (50) such that the ceramic layer (50) occupies at least a significant portion of the open pores (40) of the metal portion and is bonded to a significant portion of at least one external side of the metal element (20). The present invention is also a method of manufacturing such an ICS material.
