Abstract
The paper aims constructing an optimum design program for reinforced concrete frames basing on Vietnamese design code TCVN-1991. The internal forces analysis is realized by using the finite element method. For solving the optimum problem, the program has used the algorithm of Sequential Linear Programming and the programming language is MATLAB through the software MATLAB version 5.3.
