Bridge Inspection
Bridge inspection is a systematic process used to assess the condition and safety of bridges. Trained professionals, often called bridge inspectors, examine various components such as the deck, beams, and supports for signs of wear, damage, or deterioration. This helps ensure that bridges remain safe for public use.
Inspections are typically conducted at regular intervals, depending on the bridge's age and traffic volume. The findings from these inspections inform necessary maintenance or repairs, helping to prevent accidents and extend the lifespan of the structure. Regular bridge inspections are crucial for maintaining infrastructure safety.
