The aim of this work is to present the application of Microsoft Excel Solver to the optimization of stiffened walls of metallic prismatic silos, profiled in trapezoidal and zigzag sections, seeking the construction of an auxiliary tool to structural designers. Some numerical results are presented in order illustrate the use of Solver, as well as to show the significant economy achieved with to the developed formulation.
