OPTIMIZATION OF SINGLY REINFORCED RC BEAMS
International Journal of Research -GRANTHAALAYAH, 2017 The main objective of this paper is to achieve an optimal design for the reinforced concrete beams. Optimization of beams results in saving in cost. The objective function is to minimize the total cost of the beam. The cost of each beam includes the cost of concrete, reinforcement and formwork.
