Due to the development in structural analysis studies, optimization techniques have become part in the design of reinforced concrete structures. Making it possible to design structures with optimized cross-sections. Thus, the present study aims to implement optimization techniques, using the Solver tool, to design procedure of reinforced concrete beams following the precepts of Brazilian Standard ABNT NBR 6118:2014. Focusing to minimize the cost of reinforced concrete beams, where the design variables are the height and width of the beam cross-section and the constraints are imposed by the relevant technical standards and design variables limitations.

In the present research, the reliability of optimized reinforced concrete beams was evaluated in different design situations. Simply supported beams were optimized to find the dimensions and reinforcements of the cross-section that minimize costs, meeting the criteria of technical codes, through genetic algorithms. For each optimized beam, the reliability index was obtained in relation to the ultimate limit state of flexure with the iHLRF algorithm, considering the uncertainties of the resistance and load models, loads and resistances. It wa s verified that the reliability indexes, in general, were higher than the minimum value of 3.8, recommended by technical codes, in design situations with little live load. Through a parametric study, trends were identified for the reliability index according to the design parameters and characteristics of the beams.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
