Recent design trends indicate that the structural inputs are taken during the post-design stage (after finalizing the concept and geometric form by an architect) and this restricts the creativity of the structural engineer. Hence, there is a need to develop a process for designing the built mass/ geometry, which is not only governed by functional or aesthetic requirements, but also through strong principles derived from the physical forces and thus creating an efficient solution. This process, when exercised by a designer/ architect from the pre-design stage, forms a holistic design approach. To understand the impact of geometries on their structural behavior, the research analyses various geometric typologies, evolution, structural classifications affecting their stability. The research would investigate the effect of minor alterations to the geometry (such as curvature) and their effect on structural efficiency. It also discusses the technological advancements of the geometric form and the structural principles derived from various case studies. This paper showcases the application of engineering principles and material optimization, which results in a slender, lightweight and efficient structures.
