Abstract:In the United States, the stewardship and management of approximately 599,000 bridges present ongoing planning, operational, maintenance, and economic challenges for Federal, State, and local transportation agencies. To help overcome these challenges and foster the next generation of bridges and bridge management systems, in April 2008, the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) launched the Long-Term Bridge Performance (LTBP) Program, a major new strategic initiative designated as a flagship research program. The LTBP Program is intended to be a long-term research effort with the objective of collecting scientific quality data from a large number of our Nation’s highway bridges—those representing the most common bridges in the National Bridge Inventory—to provide a more detailed and timely picture of bridge health and bridge performance.
