Abstract
In this paper a micro-level optimization is applied to tall steel buildings. In order to achieve the optimum structure the Fully Stress Design technique is used to get the full section response. With this technique is possible to find the correct position of the horizontal stiffening that minimizing the structural weight. The restrictions on horizontal displacements must be taken into account during all the analyses.
