The design of bridges often involves the use of structural analysis models of varying degrees of complexity. A variety of analysis methods and software can be used to create and analyze these models, and the process can be quite complex, with significant amounts of input and output data. Quality assurance and quality control are two essential processes.

NCHRP Synthesis 620: Quality Processes for Bridge Analysis Models, from TRB's National Cooperative Highway Research Program, documents state department of transportation (DOT) practices related to the quality assurance and quality control processes for bridge structural models.
