Abstract
In this paper parametric optimization of plane two-hinged steel truss with hollow structural members has been considered. Cross sectional sizes of circular hollow brace and chord members and node coordinates of steel truss have been considered as design variables. The system of constraints included stresses and buckling checks for each structural member as well as displacements checks for defined structural nodes. A set of technological requirements have been also integrated to the system of constraints. The minimum structural weight and minimum construction budget was considered as the purpose function. An update gradient method has been proposed in order to solve the parametric optimization task. Suggested optimization technique has been implemented with elaborated software OPTCAD. Numerical example presented by paper has been demonstrated the effectiveness of the proposed optimization methodology.
