V. CONCLUSION
The constrained optimization problem resulting from the
mathematical programming problems of optimum design of
prestress slab has been solved by SUMT. The constrained
optimisation has been converted into unconstrained, one by
interior penalty function method. DFP method was used for
solving the resulting unconstrained problems the one
dimensional minimization problem arising in DFP methods
is solved by cubic interpolation method. The computer
program is written in MATLAB. The optimized weight and
cost of PSC slab unit compared with conventional and
RDSO standard design. A significant cost savings and
weight reduction over the RDSO standard design and
conventional design is achieved by optimization.
