Abstract:The growing scarcity of natural resources drives the construction sector to seek solutions and technologies where materials are employed not only for greater cost-effectiveness but also for improved performance and increased sustainability. This study aimed to use optimization in the design of reinforced concrete beams, aiming to reduce costs, CO₂ emissions, and concrete cracks. Considering the conflicting nature of the objectives, a multi-objective optimization was performed using the Non-dominated Sorting Ge… Show more
