Resumen

This work presents an innovative method to determine the degree of bridge corrosion deterioration of the Federal Highway Network in Mexico, as a functionof environmental factors such as prevailing climate where the bridge is located, bridge geographic positioning (e.g. coastal line, river or lake distance) andthe distance from an industrial corridor. The information was obtained and analyzed using last generation Global Positioning Systems (GPS). This workalso presents the preliminary results of the corrosion damaged-induced Mexican Federal bridge inventory.
