As Canada prepares to begin the design and construction of the Hebron Offshore Platform off the coast of Newfoundland, the extreme conditions that the facility must be able to withstand will present designers with a multitude of challenging problems. Similar challenges are being faced by engineers world-wide in numerous different applications. New technological challenges, more stringent performance-based design codes, aging infrastructure, and increasing concerns about extreme load conditions have combined to create a need for advanced software tools for the performance assessment of concrete structures. The VecTor suite of analysis programs are being developed at the University of Toronto in response to this need.

随着加拿大准备开始纽芬兰海岸外希伯伦海上平台的设计和建造，该设施必须能够承受的极端条件将给设计人员带来许多具有挑战性的问题。世界各地的工程师在许多不同的应用中也面临着类似的挑战。新的技术挑战、更严格的基于性能的设计规范、老化的基础设施以及对极端荷载条件的日益关注，这些因素结合在一起，产生了对用于混凝土结构性能评估的高级软件工具的需求。为了满足这一需求，多伦多大学正在开发VecTor分析程序套件。
