Bridges & tunnels

Bridges and tunnels managed to national standards, element by element

Structures are the most critical assets on any network. Mintema was built for them: national standards ready on day one, inspections that rate every element, and a capital plan that follows the condition.

Restrictions and repairs that follow the condition

What you get
  • Status updated automatically

    Poor elements change the structure’s status.

  • Load and lane restrictions

    Recorded with evidence and lifted after repair.

  • Repairs from findings

    Work orders raised directly from defects.

FAQ

Bridges & tunnels, answered

Have a question that is specific to your organisation? A solution engineer will answer it against your own assets, processes and data.

Yes. Ready bridge and tunnel types map to AASHTO SNBI and FHWA SNTI, and you can adjust them without code.

Yes. Your own forms, ratings and approval chains are configured to match it.

Yes. DXF models are loaded and their layers linked to the structure’s elements.

With the reason, the evidence and the approvals, and they are lifted after the repair is checked.

A WORKING SESSION

Your structures,
element by element.

We will load one of your bridges, run an element inspection and show the status update on its own.
