Introduction to BIM INTRODUCTION TO THE BRIDGE INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE SYSTEM (BIM) BIM Bridge Inspection and Maintenance
Introduction to BIM BIM System Definition A comprehensive management system with the ability to process inspection and component information to support: Inspection management Maintenance programming Strategic planning Rehabilitation programs Replacement programs Budget development BIM Bridge Inspection and Maintenance Page 1
Introduction to BIM BIM System Functions Ensures appropriate levels of safety and service. Maximizes life and utility of bridge structures. Assists service life prediction of bridge elements or structure types. Identifies need for continued monitoring. Provides a electronic system for managing inspection information and collecting and verifying inventory data. Provides data for setting priorities. BIM Bridge Inspection and Maintenance Page 2
Introduction to BIM BIM System Functions (cont d) Assists the allocation of resources. Provides information to develop maintenance costs (.i.e. materials, quantities). Facilitates information exchange with others. Provides a framework for training and evaluation of inspectors. Provides information for evaluating design, construction and maintenance standards.

Introduction to BIM Bridge Structure Categories Standard Bridges A bridge constructed from standard components according to standard plans. Culverts A bridge sized culvert is one with an equivalent diameter of 1500 mm or larger. Major Bridges All bridges which are not standard Sign Structures Overhead sign structures BIM Bridge Inspection and Maintenance Page 7
