Comparison of different regulations and metaheuristic algorithms in beam design

In this first study, the rectangular reinforced concrete beam’s costs and cross-section sizes are found by using Harmony Search (HS), Differential Evolution Algorithm (DE), Jaya Algorithm, Teaching- Learning Based (TLBO), Hybrid algorithm (Jaya-TLBO) Flower Pollination (FPA) separately ACI 318 building code. addition, in order to better see how successful algorithms are, standard deviation of used project a certain number iterations, price changes which iteration minimum cost is compared. As result running different 5, 10, 15 20 times, separate values recorded, average iterations for each shown finding values. Furthermore, reached objective function fewer their deviations 0 earlier. second beam design made according 318, TS500 Eurocode 2 regulations under loads with classes. Optimization Matlab program, comparisons between regulations. roughly same; however, 318’s cheapest.
