Study on in-Service Bridge LCC Decision Model Based on Maintenance Management System

Article Preview

Abstract:

In this paper, decision-making tree and Markov process are used to select maintenance strategies of in-service bridges with the minimum LCC (life-cycle cost). Other costs in life cycle are considered comprehensively when establish the model to find the optimal maintenance strategy. Finally, an example is given to verify the efficiency of the model. The research methodology can provide effective support to bridge maintenance management decision-maker for making management strategies.
