Abstract:
Bridge inspections are still performed according to local strategies, and frequently their results depended heavily on the inspector's skill. To implement standardized inspections and to give technical support to the inspector, a knowledge-based computer program, Bridge-1, was developed. An interactive system, it is part of a larger expert system for bridge maintenance strategy still being developed.
