The Conservation Management Model allows all information on bridges to be correctly organized and
handled, making it a fundamental instrument for the management of these structures;
The Bridge Maintenance Management System consists of a series of activities in constant

development and improvement;
The set of activities that belong to the Bridge Maintenance Management System is transversal to the
different EP directorates;
The Conservation Management Model is completely integrated in EPs operations, ensuring the
reliability of results.

3 BRIDGE MAINTENANCE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM
ICDS12
DURABLE STRUCTURES
12
The Bridge Conservation Management System allows a vast knowledge

of bridges Conditional Rating through a periodic update of the set of
activities that support the system:
The Bridge Inventory consists of Technical, Administrative and
Constitutive data and requires permanent updating;
The Routine Inspection is a visual assessment of bridge

maintenance needs. When damage detected are considered
important, a Main Inspections can be requested;
DS
The Main Inspection is a visual assessment of the safety of all

bridge components that, according to their importance, allows the
inspector to grade the urgency of the bridge intervention with as
indicator factor called Condition Rating;
The Underwater Main Inspection is a visual assessment of the

safety of the underwater bridge components, as well as the
river bed.

The request of a Main Inspections usually results from an alert situation in a Routine Inspection;
Main Inspections are only carried out when its anticipation is justified;
Following the Main Inspections, a great amount of interventions have been carried out, preventing a more
severe evolution of detected damage.

Since June 2010, all Main Inspections to ordinary bridges are done by EPs technical staff;
In 2011, the first cycle of 5 years ended, with all EP bridges assessed;
The second cycle of Main Inspections will start in 2012 and will last until 2016. In this period of time, almost
5.150 bridges will be inspected;
For the planning of this second cycle a great number of new bridges will be added to EPs patrimony duo to the
incorporation of Grande Lisboa and Douro Litoral concessions.

Main Underwater Inspections are held every 4 years in approximately 150 bridges
which foundations
are
permanently under water;
These Inspections are carried out in a 2 years cycle, when and where needed;
To date, an Underwater Inspections Manual is being developed, to increase the technical knowledge about
the behavior of bridge underwater components.

To date a study on all Foot Bridges is under development. Due to their particular dimension and need of
strategic analysis, this study will allow the planning and prioritization of interventions.

Updating the computer application where the Bridge Maintenance

Management System is based on, with the aim of:
Developing the Inspections Planning;
Integrate the evolutional improvements of SGOA;
DS
Highlight all the information concerning the Inventory and the Inspections;
Access and registration control of changed information;
Development of Pivot Tables, to allow the selections of results according to

the persuade objectives;
Flexibility, fitting the management needs of EP;
IC
SGOAs integration and interaction with other EPs computer applications,

such as Gesto Documental, SIG, Planeamento.
DURABLE STRUCTURES
Technical Developments:
LNE
C
Continue the technical training of Inspectors to introduce skills that

increase their ability of making a proper assessment of bridges safety
conditions.
Pursuit the development and improvement of Manuals and the System
support documentation.
Management Planning:
Believe in a technical and financial support to keep a cycle of preventive

interventions (3 to 5 years) progressively decreasing the reactive
interventions (1 to 2 years).
Integrated management of the different management systems developed in EP
for other structures, such as SGOA, SGPAV, SGOC.
