Abstract

Due to the fact that the design of a reinforced concrete structure changes in accordance with its shape and assigned load, total automation of the design system has not been achieved. For instance, since there is no general rule about setting up reinforcing steel quantity and arrangement location, it is simply not feasible to automatically decide the reinforcing arrangement location. In this study, the ESO(evolutionary structural optimization) technique and its related issues will be discussed. The ESO techniques is determined the reasonable load path which is traveling of load between in-flow and out-flow at a concrete structure using numerical analysis. And the results applied to the steel arrangement in reinforced concrete structures. The optimal algorithm, which determines the terminal criteria during ESO process, has been updated by using the obtained results. And the load path within the member has been determined automatically.
