BRIDGE MANAGEMENT BASED ON LIFETIME RELIABILITY AND WHOLE LIFE COSTING: THE NEXT GENERATION

摘要: The next generation of bridge management systems has to use powerful reliability, optimization, and life-cycle engineering tools predict the performance bridges costs associated with interventions including both agency user costs, find optimal lifetime strategy based on benefit/cost methodologies, implement this at network project levels, update as more information becomes available. This paper describes those portions current effort which have direct bearing prediction from viewpoint a reliability approach integration whole life costing reliability. A particular emphasis is placed upon reliability-based management. Examples solutions for predictions analyses are presented. For covering abstract see ITRD E106406.
