Abstract:For structures both large and small, MDOT bridge inspectors follow guidelines in the AASHTO Manual for Bridge Element Inspection (MBEI). While effective for small bridges, the MBEI works less well for large bridges, which often include many types of material and complex interconnections between elements. In this pooled-fund research project, MDOT partnered with six other states to develop guidelines for inspecting large bridges and recommend improvements to bridge management practices.
