Abstract The computer program SAP IV for the static and dynamic analysis of linear structural systems is presented. The report is divided into three parts. In the first part the reader is introduced to the logical construction of the program, the dynamic high speed storage allocation, the analysis capabilities, the finite element library and the numerical techniques used. Typical running times are described. In the second part of the report several sample analyses are described. These problems have been selected as standard problems whose solutions are provided with the program. In the last part of the report the user's manual of the program is given. (Author)
