Generic Exploration and Navigation Tool for Structures Developed as part of a project sponsored by the Austrian Science Fund (FWF), the new Generic Exploration and Navigation Tool for Structures (GENTs) enables a completely new approach to the design of load-bearing structures. The software combines evolutionary optimisation methods and computer- based calculation tools for the first time to create an intuitive tool for architects and engineers. Until now, the design of beam
structures only allowed for the channelling of forces applied by pressure and tensile load. This led to a conventional canon of various framework typologies which were all
based on triangles as basic design units, which thereby all had a high degree of regularity in common. With GENTs, bending moments can also be factored into the design process, together with pressure and tensile load. As a result, the design no longer starts out from a simplified systematisation, but can simulate the entire complex interaction of the individual beam elements. The way in which this
structural optimisation works was demonstrated in extensive series of tests with up to 2.5 million calculated structures. GENTs- generated support structures show the same load-bearing capacity and deformation as traditional ones, but are up to 15 per cent lighter.
