Structural Optimisation of Steel Structures with Karamba3D

This workshop will guide you through the basics of optimisation of structures using Karamba3D!

We will first dive into Cross Section Optimisation tool to design steel profiles for a simple structure and look at how the different settings can affect the optimisation procedure. Then we will use Galapagos for a single-objective optimisation to increase the efficiency of the structure. Lastly, a multi-objective optimisation procedure will be set up to optimise the shape, structural performance and material quantities of the building. This workshop will provide a thorough understanding to set up your own structural optimisation procedures in your own work!

Participants will receive a free, 3-months trial license to Karamba3D, and access to the workshop recording, and downloadable example files. Karamba3D 3.1.4 will be used for the workshop.

This workshop will be led by Matthew Tam (Karamba3D & Bollinger+Grohmann) and participants will receive access to workshop recording and example files.
