Evaluating Bridge Design

As we now know, ergonomics focuses on and represents bridge personnel needs and requirements throughout the life cycle of systems. The goal is to minimise human error, thereby maximising human and total system safety and effectiveness. This is accomplished through the application of ergonomic research and design guidance; the conduct of appropriate analyses and solicitation of bridge personnel input to derive requirements and needs; and the application of a cogent, pragmatic, ergonomic design process.
