contents Weighted Average Bridge Inspection Methodology (WABIM) Cristhian Camilo Amariles-López Cristian Camilo Osorio-Gómez Ingeniería pathologies structural health visual inspection Bridge methodology damage quantification This article discusses developing a methodology based on visual inspection for quantifying bridge damage (WABIM). The proposed methodology was developed through the application of weighted averages and a case study. Many current visual inspection methodologies, manuals, or guides related to bridges only allow qualitative results to be determined. Consequently, a high degree of inefficiency and inaccuracy was identified in the results from traditional methodologies; since they have a subjective approach, the results merely depend on the observer. Therefore, a methodological proposal was generated that allowed qualitative results to be described quantitatively, increasing the objectivity of the analysis and the accuracy of bridge maintenance plans. Rating ranges are used with weighted averages for each pathology, applied directly to the structural elements of the bridges. The classification guidelines and pathologies of bridge structures are adapted according to the Manual for the Visual Inspection of Bridges and Pontoons of Invías, Colombia. The case study was developed on a bridge in the city of Pereira, Colombia, presenting more significant surface deterioration and equipment deterioration. The WABIM methodology identified that periodic maintenance is required and the intervention's emphasis. 2023 artículo científico 0012-7353 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=49677978007 https://www.redalyc.org/journal/496/49677978007/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/496/49677978007/html/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/496/49677978007/49677978007.epub https://www.redalyc.org/journal/496/49677978007/movil https://doi.org/10.15446/dyna.v90n225.104694 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=496 Dyna application/pdf Universidad Nacional de Colombia Dyna (Colombia) Num.225 Vol.90
