In this paper, unlike previous studies, the main goal is to use the substructuring technique to develop a framework which expands the capabilities of current nonlinear programs, enabling detailed analysis of mixed-type reinforced concrete (RC) systems in an integrated fashion, to a degree of accuracy unattained before. To achieve this goal, the primary objective of the proposed framework is to combine different VecTor programs which are among the most advanced nonlinear analysis tools for RC structures, while fully considering the interaction between substructures. This can greatly extend the application of conventional standalone nonlinear analysis. For instance, integrating VecTor2 (membrane software) and VecTor5 (frame software) provides a unique and effective solution technique for detailed analysis of disturbed regions in RC frames which is not available in any other stand-alone frame type analysis program. The flexible and object-oriented architecture of the framework facilitates inclusion of new analysis software. The application and effectiveness of the proposed framework are illustrated by modelling and analysis of two experimental case studies.
