The algorithmic design is a structural shape design approach based on mathematical functions that consists of several parameters. On the basis of the approach, optimual structural design problems can also be formulated with respect to a relatively limited number of design variables, generating somewhat elegant and complex resultant designs. In the current study, the approach is applied to optimal design of truss structures. We develop a formulation applicable to various types of truss structures. Some computational examples are also demonstrated.
