About the Meeting

This year, we’re bringing together the AASHTOWare Rating and Design Bridge User Group (RADBUG) and Bridge Management User Group (BrMUG) meetings to strengthen collaboration and create a more unified approach to addressing bridge-related challenges. By combining expertise and perspectives from both Bridge Management and Bridge Rating and Design, members will benefit from:

  • Collaborative discussions that lead to innovative strategies for bridge safety, maintenance, and design.
  • Access to a wider range of knowledge and best practices.
  • Opportunities to network and build relationships across disciplines.

New This Year

The Joint AASHTOWare RADBUG & BrMUG Annual Meeting has been consolidated to enable all Bridge offices to be located together simultaneously.

Highlights from the 2025 RADBUG Meeting

The AASHTOWare BrDR Golden Span Award was inaugurated at the 2025 RADBUG Meeting. Other notable highlights included a highly regarded extended API session, updates from the AASHTO Committee on Bridges and Structures technical committees that contributed to guiding the software's future direction, and essential training sessions aimed at educating new users about the software.

Highlights from the 2025 BrMUG Meeting

One key feature of the 2025 BrMUG Meeting was the simultaneous Management and Inspection training, which allowed participants to focus on their specific areas of expertise. Additionally, a task force panel was available, providing an opportunity to pose questions directly to state leaders about the product's direction.
