The main goal of this online training is to introduce the fundamentals of practical data science relevant to transportation and roadway experts. Various aspects, such as the use of different data processing tools, data visualization, data mining and artificial intelligence will be discussed through online hands-on tutorials.
This on-line training workshop will cover the main technical issues regarding Road Bridge Management, Inspection and Maintenance. The contents will be based on international standards as well as the hands-on experience of the course instructors. The workshop is addressed at highway agency executives and private sector contractors. The topics of the workshop go from the basic knowledge of Road Bridges and their main characteristics, to the visual inspection activities, until the most up-to-date concepts of Bridge Asset Management.
This workshop is designed to provide a comprehensive knowledge of fundamental concepts and methods used in asset management to preserve a road network in a “State-of-Good-Repair”. Participants will learn about best asset management practices to maintain inventories, monitor functional and structural infrastructure performance, develop performance models, identify treatment and budget needs, prioritize resource allocation, and conduct life-cycle cost and risk assessment analysis to formulate cost-effective maintenance and rehabilitation strategies.
Selecting a road safety countermeasure can thus be a life-or-death decision: specifiers need to understand certain criteria with regards to available systems or design scenarios, and also have a clear understanding of applicable standards, as well as site-specific conditions where they are to be used. This course reviews the state of knowledge and presents processes to determine appropriate road engineering countermeasures based on these site conditions.
The course will provide key methods, tools, and techniques used by best in class companies and practitioners in the construction supervision industry. The course is FIDIC focused and covers the roles and responsibilities of The Engineer, contract administration, and the dispute resolution process as prescribed by FIDIC.

Safety performance determines how and why these failures occur on a road network, even in the absence of robust crash data, and gives additional answers to determine what can be done to prevent similar incidents in the future and build more robust economic cases supporting road safety investments.
This course presents best practices and state-of-the-art methods for effective bridge maintenance, management, and inspection. A major part of the course focuses on bridge repair and rehabilitation issues, bridge management systems, the needs of highway agencies, and bridge-related safety and risk issues. It also addresses best practices for bridge inspections and how to utilize new technologies for accurate results in a timely and cost-efficient manner.
