Study on the Optimal Design of the Members of Contaniner Building with Building Materials II: Joint and Corner Column Optimization

Containers are widely used for building, in order to promote the use of container building, it is necessary to do the research on optimal design. The corresponding optimal design has been achieved through the software package of HyperWorks, the lightest total weight is taken as the objective function, and the strength and stiffness are taken as the constraint conditions. Based on the finite element analysis of the joint and corner column, the cross-sectional size is taken as design variables, and then the optimization design of joint and corner column of container building is made.
