Abstract
The structural design problem is acknowledge to be commonly multi‐criteria in nature. The various bases for multi‐criteria optimization methodologies are outlined and a computationally viable method for generating Pareto optimal solutions is adopted for the structural design problem where the criteria may be non‐commensurable. A numerical example on optimal truss design illustrating non‐commensurable criteria is given.Keywords
