Life‐cycle cost assessment of mid‐rise and high‐rise steel and steel–reinforced concrete composite minimum cost building designs
The traditional trial‐and‐error design approach is inefficient to determine an economical design satisfying also the safety criteria. Structural design optimization, on the other hand, provides a numerical procedure that can replace the traditional design approach with an automated one. The objective of this work is to propose a performance‐based seismic design procedure, formulated as a structural design optimization problem, for designing steel and steel–reinforced concrete composite buildings subject to interstorey drift limitations. For this purpose, eight test examples are considered, in particular four steel and four steel–reinforced concrete composite buildings are optimally designed with minimum initial cost. Life‐cycle cost analysis (LCCA) is considered as a reliable tool for measuring the damage cost due to future earthquakes that will occur during the design life of a structure. In this study, LCCA is employed for assessing the optimum designs obtained for steel and steel–reinforced concrete composite design practices. Copyright © 2011 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
