Most engineers may agree that an optimum design of a particular structure is a proposal that minimizes costs without compromising resistance, serviceability and aesthetics. Additionally to these conditions, the theory and application of the method that produces such an efficient design must be easy and fast to apply at the structural engineering offices. A considerable amount of studies have been conducted for the past four decades. Most researchers have used constraints and tried to minimize the cost of the structure by reducing the weight of it [8]. Although this approach may be true for steel structures, it is not accurate for composite structures such as reinforced and prestressed concrete. Maximizing the amount of reinforcing steel to minimize the weight of the overall structure can produce an increase of the cost if the price of steel is too high compared to concrete [8]. A better approach is to reduce the total cost of the structure instead of weight. However, some structures such as Prestressed Concrete AASHTO Girders have been standardized with the purpose of simplifying production, design and construction. Optimizing a bridge girder requires good judgment at an early stage of the design and some studies have provided guides for preliminary design that will generate a final economical solution [17] [18]. Therefore, no calculations or optimization procedure is required to select the appropriate Standard AASHTO Girder. This simplifies the optimization problem of a bridge girder to reducing the amount of prestressing and mild steel only. This study will address the problem of optimizing the prestressing force of a PC AASHTO girder by using linear programming and feasibility domain of working stresses. A computer program will be presented to apply the optimization technique effectively.
