摘要: |
As the third millennium dawns, the United States is in the midst of a "bridge crisis". Maintenance needs for older bridges have far outpaced available resources. This situation indicates the need not only for improved repair and rehabilitation techniques but also for a comprehensive approach to bridge management. Fortunately, advances in the power of microprocessors have made available personal computers and instrumentation that greatly enhance the ability of bridge engineers to manage and monitor structures, then take the proper action at the right time. This paper defines the current state of the art in bridge maintenance and management and looks ahead to the challenges that this field will face in the 21st century. |
