In the capital of Colombia there are about 448 pedestrian bridges, and in the most recent study of the Personería de Bogotá, it was shown that more than 50% are in fair or poor condition, which makes their maintenance necessary.
(ANI will deliver the longest bridge on the Vía al Llano).
In response to this need of the city and of the millions of Bogota citizens who use them daily, the auditing company MAB Engineering of Value created a 4.0 solution that it put at the service of the city on the Meissen bridge and for which it obtained a recognition in the Camacol BIM Excellence Awards.
Developed with 4.0 tools such as the BIM methodology, using digital twins for the construction of a Big Data BRIM (Bridge Information Modeling), this procedure was implemented in the pedestrian bridge located south of Bogotá, on which the maintenance carried out with costs and execution dates were recorded, optimizing times and costs.
This solution was designed to reduce the deterioration of pedestrian bridges in Bogotá and, in general, of all public goods, with adequate maintenance that contributes to their conservation and safety. It is proposed, in the future, to have a macro maintenance program in this type of infrastructure in the capital with the aim of having analysis tools that allow better decision-making and anticipate the preventive maintenance of these, and make projections of costs and duration of the activities to be carried out.
Bogotá has the challenge of being a true smart city, and to fulfill this purpose, the digitization of its public assets is essential. 4.0 solutions are tools that are used worldwide to reduce and control the deterioration of public assets and give tools to the entities in charge of maintenance, the IDU in the case of the capital, to control and monitor the status of each one, but, above all, protecting the lives of users by guaranteeing that they are in perfect condition when time to use them.
