Abstract:

Parametric Design has appeared recently for expressing a new paradigm in the field of design. This new methodology has been applied recently in the field of architecture. However, in the case of Civil Engineering, the number of examples that illustrate the use of parametrics is almost non- existent. This paper describes the main characteristics and the methodology of Parametric Design as a technique to solve the form-finding problem. A study of the main implications of these techniques for solving engineering problems is carried out. Finally, an implementation in a common engineering problem illustrates this new paradigm.
