Abstract: There are various techniques used for optimization. Here in this paper APMonitor language as well as Genetic algorithm is used for optimization purpose. Optimization of truss-structures for finding optimal cross-sectional size, topology, and configuration of trusses to achieve minimum weight is carried out using real-coded genetic algorithms (GAs). APMonitor language is also used for optimization purpose it gives the contour maps for functions weight, stress etc. It uses MATLAB software. APMonitor gives results faster in comparison with genetic algorithm
