NEED OF VISUAL INSPECTION, TOOLS AND EQUIPMENT FOR VISUAL INSPECTION

Abstract

Generally bridgesare more exposed to severe environmental conditions than any other structures which deterioratebridges during their serviceable life and reduce its serviceable life period. Thiscontinuous process ofdeteriorationcould lead to failure of the bridge. This induces the timely inspection or assessment of the bridge. Also most of bridges aredesigned for slow speed, limited traffic volume than its current utilisation. Since the environmental conditions and deterioration process goes on in its serviceable lifethis affects the performance ofbridge. All these factors inducethe need of inspection of bridge. This paper focus on the visual inspection of the concrete bridge, tools required, and things we have to visually inspect during inspection of a concrete bridge.
