Structural Integrity Assessment of Aging Infrastructure in Uganda

Uganda's infrastructure, particularly bridges and buildings, is aging, posing significant structural integrity risks. The study employs a probabilistic risk assessment model to evaluate the probability and impact of potential failures in selected structures. A preliminary analysis suggests that bridges constructed before are at an increased risk, with a failure probability estimated between 25% and 35%. The probabilistic risk assessment model provides insights into the structural health of aging infrastructure in Uganda. Immediate remediation should be prioritised for bridges older than to mitigate risks.
