The Pennsylvania Bridge Management System
Abstract A Bridge Management Work Group, as researchers for the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation, developed the engineering concepts and requirements and assisted the system contractor in the development of a total bridge management system (BMS). A contractor working for PennDOT provided system design, development, testing, implementation and training on the use of BMS software. The general objective for the BMS was to develop a management tool which will enable a systematic determination of present needs for maintenance, rehabilitation and replacement of bridges in Pennsylvania, and to predict future needs using various scenarios, along with a prioritization for maintenance, rehabilitation and replacement, which will provide guidance in the effective use of designated funds. The software implementation date was 24 December 1986, with full implementation completed 28 February 1987. The department assumed responsibility for the BMS software on 1 March 1987.
