| Abstract: |
This paper proposes a novel approach for comparing different structural geometries based on data visualisation and illustrates this with bowstring bridges as case study. The aim of the approach is to have a quick and overall insight in different design proposals at the beginning of the design process. The approach will use a dashboard that is a combination of charts. This dashboard will enable the (structural) designer to have all information on the structural behaviour of a series of design proposals at hand and to make informed design decisions based on the compact dashboard. |
