Design Optimization
Reducing steel weight and fabrication effort without changing the design intent.
Overview
Optimization reviews look at the structural system, member sizes, connection types and repetition. Proposals are submitted to the engineer of record for approval; the governing design standard is never relaxed.
Scope of work
- Structural system comparison
- Member size rationalisation
- Connection simplification and repetition
- Fabrication and transport-driven splice planning
