Optimal Design and Competitive Spans of Timber Floor Joists Based on Multi-Parametric MINLP Optimization

This study investigates the optimization of the design of timber floor joists, taking into account the self-manufacturing costs and the discrete sizes of the structure. This non-linear and discrete class of optimization problem was solved with the multi-parametric mixed-integer non-linear programmin...
