Abstract

In the 21st century, the most advanced digital methods have allowed structure design, analysis and multidirectional optimisation based on multiple parameters. Mathematical algorithms based on proportionality requirements enable the software to create an individual solution for the specified boundary conditions. This is particularly interesting from the point of view of prefabrication and material engineering, which is now more often characterised by the idea of post-Fordism, where the desire for unification does not exclude the creative search for individual solutions. The research presented in this paper attempts to answer how parametric designing conducted on bar trusses can be implemented into the optimisation of structural elements. The methodology employed in the study involved using of parametric design tools to create a symmetrical truss model, assess its advantages and challenges, and consider load cases. The information provided in the conclusion highlights the evolution of parametric design – which has not only revolutionised architecture and construction by inspiring unconventional forms, but has also facilitated the optimisation of design processes, offered new design possibilities and enabled effective control over various modelling aspects, confirming its invaluable role in both architecture and construction.
