Application of Concrete Bridge Investigation Based on Fuzzy Expert System and Google Maps

During their life service, bridge infrastructures experience various changes that lead to the deterioration of a bridge. This study was conducted as an investigation to the condition of the concrete bridge infrastructure in Surakarta using a web-based application. It was conducted by developing an application to inventory, evaluate and determine the condition of bridge infrastructure. In general, the research method was divided into two parts: firstly, to build data model for bridges database and algorithm for evaluating the condition of the bridge using fuzzy experts systems approach. Secondly, to develop a web-based application with Google Maps technology. Thirdly, to conduct surveys of several bridges as sample data to the systems. The result of this research is an application of expert system to help the stakeholder in determining the priority actions to be performed on the condition of the bridges.
