Abstract :
We attempt to develop a practical decision support system for the damage assessment of structural corrosion. This system aims to aid inexperienced inspectors to judge whether a certain bridge should be repaired or not. For this purpose, it is attempted to apply the neural network technique for the damage assessment. The learning ability of the neural network is useful to save the working time and load necessary in the inspection and analysis
