Abstract
The study is to come up with an optimal solution for the design of reinforced concrete
planar frames using the principle of direct displacement-based design. Firstly, the
fundamentals of displacement-based design introduced with its application to concrete
frame design. After that, the design process shaped in a way that result to cost effective
design of two-dimensional frames. The problem solved using MATLAB GlobalSearch
Algorithm.
