The safety and load-bearing capacity of bridges must be regularly tested. In addition to visual methods, BAM also uses a self-developed early warning system which is based on oscillation calculations. This method enables additional information on the building condition to be collected. In this way safety standards can be improved, maintenance costs reduced and information can be provided about the expected service life of a structure.
