Asset management approach emphasizes timely actions such as bridge preservation, rehabilitation, and replacement through cost-effective planning and resource allocation decisions. Considerable data can be collected thru bridge inspection and structural health monitoring. But, there is still a lack of support for using information effectively by bridge owners for appropriate decision-making. An innovative new software solution known as a Decision Making Toolbox is described in this paper to bridge that gap. This has ability to transform raw and processed data obtained from inspection and monitoring into relevant information for intelligent decision-making.
