Application of the COST TU1406 Quality Control Framework to a Stone Arch Bridge in Portugal
Abstract This paper reports on the application of the Quality Control framework suggested in the COST TU1406 to masonry arch bridges. A case study of a single span stone arch bridge built in Portugal is addressed based on real data available from visual inspections performed by the Portuguese public concessionaire and manager for the national road and railway, IP - Infraestruturas de Portugal. The results of the suggested methodology are discussed considering two maintenance scenarios and confronted with the results of the IP assessment.
