Used for detecting voids in bridge decks or locating underground utilities.
Using AI and deterioration curves to forecast when an asset will likely fail. 4. Rehabilitation and Retrofitting Strategies
Once an assessment identifies a "critical" or "poor" status, engineers must choose between several paths: Infrastructure Management, Assessment and Rehab...
Routine actions (e.g., cleaning drainage) to prevent deterioration.
Defining the required performance standards (e.g., "potholes repaired within 48 hours"). Used for detecting voids in bridge decks or
Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) systems that provide real-time data on strain, vibration, and temperature.
The baseline method, involving physical walkthroughs and standardized rating scales (e.g., Pavement Condition Index - PCI). Non-Destructive Evaluation (NDE): and temperature. The baseline method
Structural enhancements that restore the original capacity of the asset without necessarily replacing it (e.g., overlaying asphalt or carbon-fiber wrapping bridge piers).
