Providing your total Bridge Management System solution.



A software package developed by bridge engineers thats easy to use and allows you to reliably predict future expenditure programs.

This unique paperless system allows bridge inspectors to work easily in the field with hand held dataloggers and provides a practical series of reporting tools which effectively communicates information on bridge condition, maintenance priorities and budgets. BridgeAsyst is fully compatible with the philosophies of the Local Roads Bridge Management Manual.

The benefits of BridgeAsyst are:
  • Ease of use
  • Maintenance scheduling
  • Capital works budgeting
  • Interactive risk management
  • Links to asset management systems
  • GIS package linkages
  • Digital field data gathering
  • Digital photographs

  • Screenshots


    BridgeAsyst is a comprehensive Bridge Management System that has been developed with the Bridge Asset Manager in mind. It is designed to enhance the decision making process through interactive risk assessment and reporting.

    BridgeAsyst has been developed by bridge engineers actively working on managing bridge for a wide range of infrastructure authorities including:
  • State Road Authorities
  • Railways
  • Local Government


  • It is a total bridge management system which allows:
  • Capture of electronic inspection data in the field
  • Storage of all inventory and inspection data, including photographs.
  • Generagion of capital works programs
  • Risk based maintenance scheduling
  • Financial management of bridge stock to AAS27 requirements
  • Network bridge condition monitoring
  • Storage of maintenance costs




  •   Inspection Process
    BridgeAsyst utilises the inspection methodology of contemporary systems, including the Vicroads Bridge Inspection Manual and the ARRB document "Local Roads Bridge Management Manual" It Stores inspection information from comprehensive visual (Level 2) inspections and detailed (Level 3) engineering inspections.

    A hand held datalogger has been developed using a Windows CE operation systems to provide the inspector with full functionality in the field to record all inspection data. The information in the datalogger is then synchronised with the master database.



      BridgeAsyst Management Processes
    Risk Based Maintenance Scheduling
    In order to determine the prioty of maintenance requirement a risk score for every defect in the network is automatically generated within BridgeAsyst.

    The risk score is generated by combining probability of failure and the consequences of failure scores.

    By ranking the risk scores, a risk based maintenance shedule can be generated.

    Financial Analysis
    BridgeAsyst has a financial analysis module in which the following is calculated:
    The replacement cost of bridges
    The depreciated value of each structure
    The current value of the bridge stock

    By adjusting the typical replacement cost rates for typical bridge types or adjusting the replacement dates for the bridge, the bridges can be revalued when required. The reporting has been developed to meet AAS27 requirements.

    Capital Works Program
    Using the replacement year data input into BridgeAsyst as inventory infermation, a report is generated which indetifies the bridges to be replaced in 10 year groups along with the anticipated replacement cost. It allows the Bridge Manager to review likely capital expenditure requirements into the future and identify potential peaks in that expenditure.

    Network Condition Modelling
    Using the risk score for all components, an Overall Bridge Score for every bridge in the network can be determined. The overall score is used to benchmark the condition level for that road category.
