About this document
Optimal Design of SRC Beams by Joshua Rosenkrantz is a document available to read on EtoBox.
This document proposes an optimal design scheme for steel reinforced concrete (SRC) composite beams. The design variables considered include member dimensions, material strengths, and steel shape dimensions. The objective is to minimize total material costs. Constraints include design code requirements, construction rules, and conclusions from experimental studies on SRC bond-slip behavior. The proposed scheme uses a penalty function method to optimize a single objective with discrete variables. It provides
