Abstract: |
The transportation sector in various countries are facing the daunting challenge of sustainable development. In recent times, bridges on the network are experiencing failure. Sufficient data is available for analysis and comparison between different bridges. Very little data is available on the contribution of the existing bridge towards economic growth over the years. Life cycle cost analysis [LCCA] for bridges is carried out before actual construction to decide on the commercial viability of bridge construction. LCCA also needs to be carried out to reflect the changes in the scenario emerging from dynamic behaviour in bridge structure. This dynamism of the bridge is captured within Global Analytics for Bridge Management [GABM]. GABM is oriented towards fulfilling the objectives of sustainability, the process also ensures economic growth. GABM has maintained the focus on rehabilitation intervention which helps in evaluation of impact on sustainability. Tangible and intangible IRR ensures sustainability is maintained without compromising economic growth. |
