Abstract: |
World over Bridge Management [BMS] implementation is tilted towards owners having large bridge inventories. Implementing BMS is difficult for owners with less than 100 bridges. In certain pocket of India, most of the facilities and skills needed are available. The research was aimed to evolve BMS to suit the small inventory owners. The resultant application “Global Analytics for Bridge Management” [GABM] is aimed at empowering micro bridge inventory owners fulfilling the key objectives of BMS. Sustained research to provide thousands of micro-owners in India was a herculean task. GABM allows partial integration of BMS with the Bridge Information Model [BrIM]. Integration with Short term Structural Health monitoring allows risk-free monitoring of bridges in need of rehabilitation. Freedom to choose from the various functionalities in the GABM software does not result in the user losing any technical advantages of BMS. Software development for GABM was challenging. GABM renders operational ease in all operating systems. |
