Abstract:

This paper describes a project undertaken in Turkey to develop a web-based, country-wide bridge management system by gathering the scientific research and technical knowledge in this field, and by enhancing it with additional research considering the criteria and practices that are specific to the country. It is intended to develop a Bridge Management System that will be continually used by the General Directorate of Highways to manage 5486 bridges it owns as of 2006. The project aims to build a planning and maintenance reporting system that will be used by both the General Directorate and by its seventeen districts. The developed system will enable the General Directorate to monitor the safety and the maintenance costs of the bridges it owns and to be able to provide justifications, supported by administrative reports based on scientific and technical data, to higher authorities at the time when the maintenance budget for the upcoming year is being prepared.
