    Bridge ontology architecture for knowledge management in bridge maintenance
    (IEEE, 2020-07) Banujan, K; Vasanthapriyan, S; Weeraddana, C; Edussooriya, CUS; Abeysooriya, RP
    The construction sector depends on a broad variety of information from very different sources. Especially when constructing bridges, huge experience, and extensive knowledge is important. Knowledge Management (KM) is the key to share explicit and tacit knowledge in the bridge construction. As an initiation for the KM, an ontology for bridge maintenance was developed. As the first step bridge maintenance related data were collected. Then taxonomy was developed. As a next step, the bridge maintenance ontology was developed using Protégé OWL Ontology Editor. Finally, the modeled ontology was evaluated using tools and ontology experts. We strongly believe that our novel approach to bridge maintenance ontology can support all the actors on the construction site and as well as students and researchers.
