摘要: |
A combination of factors has helped focus attention on the area of bridge management in recent years. Among the most significant ones are the recognition of the important role of bridges in a highway system under growing stress and recognition of the need to establish preventive maintenance as a priority to reduce congestion and optimize the use of the existing road system. Reflecting this new disposition, the majority of the research in the area of infrastructure management systems in the last two decades has been focused on the production of increasingly sophisticated tools to manage the maintenance of bridge networks. The development of improved appraisal mechanisms to increase the quality of decision-making in the establishment of maintenance and repair strategies is a vital step towards the development of more adequate systems for bridge management. This paper proposes the use of an innovative architecture to create a new generation of systems and support the development of a more sophisticated appraisal model. |
