Course Objectives

Key Learning Outcomes

  • Review the various types of bridge structural inspections currently undertaken
  • Examine the use of Routine Bridge Inspections regarding content and frequency
  • The detailed inspection process and the value to a road authority
  • The different types of Level 3 "in depth" inspections and where these are relevant
  • Development of "Project Hand Over" inspections so that the maintenance organisation is not inheriting a "lemon"
  • Structural inspections of other items such as sign gantries, retaining walls and noise walls
  • The common problems that are associated with particular materials such as timber, concrete, steel, and masonry
  • OH&S and environmental controls that affect treatment methodology

About the Course

This course provides attendees with a fundamental grounding in the key areas of bridge inspection and maintenance as it applies today.

The course begins with an introduction to inspections before examining each type of inspection in detail. It is proposed to revisit some of the old traditional practices and see how they have changed over the years.

Many new engineers are missing out on some of the basics before launching into semi management roles. It is intended that this course will give an insight into some of these practices.

With large contracts, the standard of finish on works being handed over is the lament of the maintenance engineer. Participants will benefit from the Instructors career of experience in bridge projects and inspections with some success with large Victorian bridge projects.

Emergency bridging an area that has been overlooked in many areas will also be examined, from incidents such as bush fires, floods and detours for heavy vehicles. The result has been reinventing the wheel each time. A session is to be devoted to the various options open to engineers when an emergency arises.

Who Should Attend

  • Structural engineers who are keen to learn the basic skills in bridge maintenance and inspection
  • Bridge inspectors and surveillance officers
  • Bridge section managers who may have limited experience in the fields of maintenance and project hand over
