When designing constructions, a number of decisions must be made as to type of construction, value of geometric or other design variables, choice of materials and selection of standard values. These decisions are often based on conflicting requirements. In the present paper, a genetic algorithm is proposed for finding an optimal solution to those problems. The genetic algorithm has been implemented in an interactive program. The problem is formulated in terms of design parameters and relations (equalities, inequalities or procedures) between them. This information is parsed by a preprocessor and results in a problem definition that can be optimized with the genetic algorithm. During the optimization, the process can be followed and controlled by the designer. The values of all design parameters can be monitored, search intervals can be changed, and parameters of the algorithm modified. All this speeds up the algorithm and improves the designer's insight into the problem. As an example the design of navigation locks is treated.
