Paper title: | An object-oriented program for retaining wall design |
Authors: | Bond A J |
Summary: | The paper describes the underlying architecture of an object-oriented computer program forembedded retaining wall design. The requirements of different codes of practice are implementedin a series of classes derived from an abstract base class Designstandard. Two intermediateclasses define the particular features of limit-state and working-stress design standards. Eachconcrete class in the hierarchy represents a single code of practice. The paper explains how theprogram routes its calculations to the relevant derived class. |
