Bridges with old design features that cannot safely accommodate current traffic volumes, vehicle sizes, and weights are classified as functionally obsolete. Such deficiencies may adversely affect the performance of transportation systems in emergency situations or for disaster response. A paradigm shift is necessary in the inspection and monitoring practices of the bridge engineering community to provide preventive maintenance and restore the public's confidence in the safety of bridges. These selected papers from the Fifth New York City Bridge Conference cover a wide range of topics in the design, construction, maintenance, monitoring, and rehabilitation of bridge structures.
