Abstract: |
Because of the competing demands for scarce resources (funds, manpower, etc) national road owners are required to monitor the condition and performance of infrastructure elements through an effective inspection and assessment regime as part of an overall asset management strategy. COST Action TU1406 aims to bring together research and practicing communities in order to establish a European guideline in this issue. In this context, this paper proposes a framework to classify research-based performance indicators related to highway bridge life-cycle analyses according to a parameter readiness level (PRL). Such a method examines program concepts, technology requirements, and demonstrated capabilities to rate the level of maturity of different categories of indicators. This approach is illustrated with some examples. |
