Systems and methods for processing orders for structural designs

A method (700) includes receiving a plurality of design files at a computer-based system (600), wherein each of the design files is indicative of a respective structural design (404), a structural value associated with the respective structural design (404), and a source identifier associated with a designer of the respective structural design (404); causing a graphical representation of at leasta portion of the structural designs (404) to be displayed to a user; receiving a user selection of a first structural design (404) of the displayed structural designs (404); generating an additive manufacturing file indicative of the first structural design (404) in a predefined format, wherein the predefined format enables the processing of the additive manufacturing file into a physical structure through an additive manufacturing process; transmitting the selected first structural design (404) in the predefined format; and determining, by the computer based system, a royalty value associatedwith the selected first s
