Cost Comparison of Convenient Frame with Shear Wall-Flat Slab System

Abstract

Structure Optimisation Has Become A Main Task In A Civil Engineering Project. As A Matter Of Fact, Due To The Complexity And Particularity Of Every Structure, The Great Amount Of Variables And Design Criteria To Considerate And Many Other Factors, A General Optimisation’s Method Is Not Simple To Formulate. The Optimization Method Is Based On Decomposition Of The Main Structure Into Substructures: Floor System, Vertical Load Resisting System, Lateral Load Resisting System And Foundation System.
