Object Oriented Programming (OOP) has been proposed for developing sophisticated software that needs future expansion. Successful applications of OOP in different fields such as graphic data processing and basic OS etc. is intensively reported in the literature. To apply OOP technique in softwares for structural analysis, the target structure is represented by the basic objects (beam, truss, etc.) using key concepts such as encapsulation, polymorphism and inheritance. These features facilitate easy development and management of the program. Yagawa and Kanto⁽¹⁾ proposed class structure in structural analysis program to apply OOP technique. They showed advantages of OOP for a two-dimensional linear problem. Referring their work, we have developed seismic design program for bridge, in which some new classes, class members, class member functions were developed. It has been shown that with newly developed classes, class members and class member functions and OOP techniques, the modification and expansion of program can be more easily achieved comparing with other researchers proposal, and of course traditional procedural programming technique.
