Automated minimum-weight sizing design framework for tall self-standing modular buildings subjected to multiple performance constraints under static and dynamic wind loads

•The paper contributes to the first ever performance-based,optimisation-driven design routine for reducing the structural material usage in wind-sensitive tall self-standing modular buildings.•The optimisation is relying on a novel discrete sizing formulation considering, concurrently, multiple stru...
