Abstract
This work presents two groups of FORTRAN routines, comprising portable programming tools for the development of structural analysis programs . These tools were applied in the enhancement of the CALEB program for collapse analysis of offshore platforms and general framed structures . The RINCOM (COMmand INterpreter Routines) group of routines was empl oyed to build a pre-processor for CALEB, allowing data to be input in the form of a problem-oriented language; the second group provides fac ilities for incore memory management. The text details the operations performed by these routines, with the help of the source code listings presented in the Appendices.
