Asset management is not a case by case decision but is based on a comprehensive set of goals and strategies as a cyclic and hierarchical process from budgeting on network level down to individual measures on asset element level. The developed approaches allow long and short term LCC - predictions for bridge assets on all levels. The paper presents a verified standardized life cycle for bridge assets based on the findings and application to 3300 bridges in the province of Styria. Furthermore a preview to a refined LCC - approach on bridge element level is given allowing a specific optimization of rehabilitation decisions for individual bridges as well as an optimization on road sections and the entire bridge inventory on network level.
