To reduce the carbon footprint in buildings, it is essential to replace the common system with a more sustainable solution providing lightness and robustness with economic justification. Efficiency in the construction design has been compromised by utilizing ordinary structural elements that have not been fully exploited; therefore, reducing excessive material in them has a significant influence on transferring to more sustainable alternatives. This research aims to investigate innovative solutions for lightweight Timber-Concrete-Composite floors. This lecture presents the ongoing research regarding multi-criteria design optimization of sustainable Timber-Concrete-Composite floor systems considering embodied carbon and preliminary results regarding optimal design solutions.
