title: THEORETICAL BASIS FOR DESIGN OF LOAD-BEARING STRUCTURES PRODUCED USING ADDITIVE TECHNOLOGIES
abstract: The article discusses interconnections and mutual influence between the triad of the basic engineering concepts – material, technology and structure. The possibilities for development of load-bearing structures, produced using additive technologies are analyzed. The task of optimal material distribution within a body of variable density is formulated and solved. An algorithm for topologic optimization of load-bearing structures, produced form a material of variable density, based on the criteria
