This paper presents an implementation of Eurocode load cases for discrete global optimization algorithm for planar and space structures based on the principles of finite ele- ment methods and genetic algorithms. The final optimal design is obtained using IPE sections chosen as feasible by the algorithm, from the available steel sections from industry, used for ease of comparison with benchmarks. The algorithm is tested on several planar steel frames and a truss from the literature, with good results.
