Computational implementations of the structural optimization of mass timber beams show how the geometry of wood components can be shaped to match structural demands.
“Computational implementations of the structural optimization of mass timber beams show how the geometry of wood components can be shaped to match structural demands (Mayencourt and Mueller 2020).”

Algorithmic methods have been used to reduce required material quantities through the optimization of structural form.
“Algorithmic methods have also been used to facilitate another approach for limiting embodied carbon in buildings: reducing required material quantities through the optimization of structural form (Mayencourt and Mueller 2020;Ismail, Mayencourt, and Mueller 2021).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
