Abstract
This paper presents the study of optimization of Howe Truss by Fully Stressed Design (FSD) technique utilizing STAAD.Pro software version STAAD.Pro V8i (SELECT series4). Three span ranges of the trusses i.e. 8m, 10m and 12m have been considered and each truss has been subjected to 24 sorts of load cases by changing nodal load locations but load applied will always be symmetric. The four arrangements of load condition are taken, i.e., 100 kN, 125 kN, 150 kN and 175 kN. The total 72 number of trusses have been optimized in this study to achieve a target stress of 100 MPa. The optimal mass of all the trusses for each case and maximum deflection for each case have been calculated. Further deflection per unit mass have also been calculated and compared for each span with graph. Results of the study will be helpful in the designing of a truss that must fulfill the requirement of economy as well as strength.
