abstract = "Truss optimization in the field of Structural
Engineering is a growing discipline. The application of
Grammatical Evolution, a grammar-based form of Genetic
Programming (GP), has shown that it is capable of
generating innovative engineering designs. Existing
truss optimization methods in GP focus primarily on
optimizing global topology. The standard method is to
explore the search space while seeking minimum
cross-sectional areas for all elements. In doing so,
critical knowledge of section geometry and orientation
is omitted, leading to inaccurate stress calculations
and structures not meeting codes of practice. This can
be addressed by constraining the optimisation method to
only use standard construction elements.
The aim of this paper is not to find fully optimized
solutions, but rather to show that solutions very close
to the theoretical optimum can be achieved using
real-world elements. This methodology can be applied to
any structural engineering design which can be
generated by a grammar.",
