Abstract

Since bridge structures constitute the very vulnerable part of civil transportation system that affect directly the public safety, focus has been done on the active development of bridge health monitoring in Korea since 1990's. Gathering of field data for design verification and monitoring of long-term performance of bridges were performed in the scope of systematic and scientific inspection and management programs. Actually, modern and integrated monitoring systems are introduced in newly-built bridge structures since their design stage. This paper reviews recent development of bridge health monitoring systems in Korea in newly-built bridges with their objectives and major characteristics.
