Abstract:

Bridge Management Systems (BMSs) is an area in rapid development. Even though we have been working with this subject for nearly 20 years in Denmark, we are still adding new parts to our system. Experience obtained from working with bridge management in other countries has also influenced our system development. Thus, what we can present today is a step forward from what we were able to show a few years ago. Since the last presentation of the ongoing work in Thailand, we have developed new modules for optimization as well as preventive maintenance, long-term budgets and a price book; we are currently working on an experience module. This paper describes the various components of our system, and the status of our development, but first and foremost it describes how the system is used as a tool in the road administration when dealing with the multiple tasks that have to be taken care of in the daily work.
