Application of J-BMS to Performance Evaluation and Remaining Life Prediction of an Existing RC Bridge
This paper describes a method of performance evaluation and remaining life prediction for an aged reinforced concrete (RC) T-girder bridge by J-BMS RC version via close visual inspection data, and also verifies the assessment results obtained as outputs from the Bridge Rating Expert System (RC-BREX) which is a subsystem of the J-BMS, to evaluate the effectiveness of the system. The Bridge Manag...
متن کاملCrack Detection using a Texture Analysis-based Technique for Visual Bridge Inspection
Bridge inspection is a pathway to bridge condition rating assessment, and is an essential element of any bridge management system (BMS). The success of a BMS is highly dependent on the quality of bridge inspection outcomes and accurate estimation of future bridge condition ratings. However, existing visual bridge inspection methods suffer several limitations due to human subjective judgment. In...
متن کاملLong-Term Wireless Structural Health Monitoring of the Ferriby Road Bridge
As part of an effective bridge management system, sensor networks can provide data to support both inspection and assessment. Wireless sensor networks WSNs have the potential to offer significant advantages over traditional wired monitoring systems in terms of sensor, cabling, and installation costs as well as expandability. However, there are drawbacks with WSNs relating to power, data bandwid...
متن کاملDevelopment and Practical Application of a Lifetime Management System for Prestressed Concrete Bridges
A practical Bridge Management System has been developed by the author, which is referred to as the Japanese Bridge Management System (J-BMS) for existing concrete bridges. This paper introduces a newly developed bridge management system for the prestressed concrete (PC) bridges (J-BMS PC version) which is integrated with the PC bridge rating expert system (PC-BREX). The proposed system is able ...
متن کاملDevelopment and Practical Application of a Bridge Management System (J-BMS) in Japan
This paper presents a new bridge management system (J-BMS). It is integrated with a concrete bridge rating expert system that can be used to evaluate the serviceability of existing concrete bridges. The proposed J-BMS not only evaluates the performance of bridges, but also offers a rehabilitation strategy based on a combination of maintenance cost minimization and quality maximization. In this ...
