Abstract:Unmanned aerial systems (UAS) and the sensors they can carry as payload are being integrated into bridge inspection processes by a number of State departments of transportation (DOTs) as well as the engineering and construction firms contracted to build new bridges and refurbish existing ones. The UAS applications supporting bridge construction are new but growing. This document discusses some of the ways UAS have been used to support construction projects; the most successful of these ways are presented as noteworthy practices. These practices have been used in high-visibility bridge projects in Maine and New Hampshire and for a smaller bridge construction effort in South Dakota.
