Design Optimization of Reinforced Concrete Beams Using Artificial Neural Network

–– This paper presents an Artificial Neural Networks (ANN) model for the cost optimization of simply supported beams designed according to the requirements of the ACI 318-08 code. The model formulation includes the cost of concrete, the cost of reinforcement and the cost of formwork. A simply supported beam was designed adopting variable cross sections, in order to demonstrate the model capabil...
