BRIDGE SCOUR AND ROAD POTHOLES HAZARDS ASSOCIATED WITH THE TRANSPORT SYSTEM AND THEIR DETECTION METHODS

Abstract

The Transport is among the most significant human activities on the planet. Better transportation allows for more trading and a wider distribution of people. Transportation infrastructure like bridges and roads significantly influences the environment and is the primary energy drainer, making transportation sustainability a key concern. This paper also analyses current bridge scour and road potholes detection equipment and methodologies and their effect on the transport system. In scouring regards, a particular emphasis on those uses the structure’s complex reaction to suggest the presence and severity of the scouring phenomena affecting the structure. A Sensitivity Analysis of a newly introduced monitoring system is also assumed. This report examines the similarities and differentials between the bridges scour detection methods and potholes methods. Our key aim is to minimize human effort in identifying road potholes and bridge scouring by using a quick, easy-to-use, cost-effective process, resulting in fewer injuries and economic savings. On the other hand, many initiatives have been taken to create a technology that can instantly identify and detect potholes, leading to improved survey reliability and pavement quality through prior inspection and prompt intervention.
