Description

This manual was developed to primarily assist Department Bridge staff in the planning and scheduling of bridge maintenance, rehabilitation and replacement activities. Typical management/maintenance strategies are outlined for the various structure types on the roadway network. The strategies have been developed with the view of maximising the return on the investment in the structure. It should be recognised that modifications to the suggested strategies may be necessary to accommodate site specific concerns or limitations.

Description

The purpose of this study was to measure potential benefits generated by the development of a high speed rail system in Alberta. The analysis consists of two independent assessments: an analysis of demand-side user benefits as defined by Transport Canada economic evaluation; and a supply-side analysis of economic benefits designed to identify the community benefits in terms of long-term jobs, income and property value increases.

Description

Alberta Environment owns 14 major dams, which are all classified as "High" to "Very High" consequence dams according to the Canadian Dam Association Guidelines and must therefore be designed to accommodate seismic ground motions resulting from earthquakes with an annual exceedance probability of 1:1000 to 1:10000 without an uncontrolled release of the reservoir. The objective of this study is to provide probabilistic-based ground motions that are derived using a consistent methodology and considering the latest seismicity information, which can be used for all of the 14 major dam sites. These ground motions could potentially be used for dam safety reviews of these facilities on a consistent seismic hazard basis.

Description

The purpose of this study is to investigate the safety performance of long combination vehicles (LCVs) relative to the safety performance of passenger vehicles, straight trucks and bobtails, tractor semitrailers, and legal-length tractor double trailers operating on the LCV network and urban areas. Findings of the study will help define future truck size and weight policy for Alberta highways, and provide information to policy makers in Alberta and its trading partners concerning LCV safety.

Description

The Alberta Transportation bridge inspection program is an essential part of a comprehensive inventory, inspection, maintenance, and data management system called the Bridge Inspection and Maintenance (BIM) System. The inspection component, introduced in 1987, allows for regular scheduled inspections at all bridge and culvert sites. These inspections provide information to the system that allow inspection management, maintenance programming, budget development, strategic planning, and life cycle planning so that the safety of the traveling public and the investment in bridge structures is optimized. Occasionally, the regular Level 1 inspections highlight problems that require more detailed inspections in order to determine the proper course of action to address a problem. The Level 2 inspections are the tools that provide the detailed inspection and test information to the system. This helps to maximize the life and serviceability of bridge structures by identifying problems and...
