Abstract
A Bridge is a structure that spans horizontally the road, body of water or a valley. Bridge Construction may vary depending on the intended functioning of the bridge and nature of the that geographical region. Keeping in view the bridge site and various constraints, type of bridge and method of construction are to be selected carefully for successful completion of bridge construction. However, It has been realized that critical barriers in bridge construction need to be identified and evaluated. The intended purpose of the presented research work is to check the critical barriers in bridge construction. Six critical barriers in bridge construction have been shortlisted by carrying out extensive review of literature and categorized in to three categories: 'Climate factors', 'Engineering factors', 'Public problem factors' using experts’ inputs. Fuzzy Analytical Hierarchy Process (F-AHP) method is chosen to rank of critical barriers in bridge construction. All pair wise comparison matrices are fabricated on the basis of a survey with inputs from thirty civil engineers. The outcomes may be instrumental for the planning creators for designing influential strategies to deal with critical barriers in bridge construction.
