Abstract
Two basic approaches to desgin option evaluation, controlled
convergence and scoring are described. Their use is illustrated
for the design of a 160 m span bridge. The methods allow both
subjective and objective criteria to be used. The use of these
methods does not normally give clear-cut answere as to the best
option, but allows the competing features of an evaluation to be
understood more clearly.
