Abstract:

Importance of Inspection-Movable bridges are built to the rigid specifications ; of such groups as the American Association of State Highway and ; Transportation Officials (AASHTO), the American Road Builders Association ; (ARBA) and Underwriters Laboratories (UL). While movable bridges are ; designed to provide many years of reliable service, they operate in a harsh ; environment. Machinery and electrical components are often exposed to the ; weather year-round, and in salt-water areas, environmental deterioration is ; accelerated. Many bridges in service today were built over fifty years ago, ; and even the most ruggedly designed bridge cannot escape wear and ; deterioration over such a long period.
