Civils and Structures Expert System

Overview

The Civils and Structures Expert System is configured to assist in the management of clients’ onshore structural assets. This expert system has been configured to allow storage of each structural components general, location, design, baseline, inspection, and risk data. A structural components inspection plan is automatically calculated following a probability of failure and consequence of failure risk assessment.
