About Us
The
Bridge Engineering Software & Technology (BEST) Center of the University of
Maryland was established in 1986 to develop bridge related technology and
provide a mechanism whereby the bridge oriented software which was developed for
the Maryland State Highway Administration is made available on a commercial
basis to other state design agencies and private consultants. To ensure that the
services and software provided by the BEST Center is of demonstrable quality, in
order to avoid potential liability, the State of Maryland has provided
substantial resources to support the commercialization process. These resources
have been provided over a twenty-year period from the Maryland State Highway
Administration and numerous other sources. The BEST Center has been in operation
for over ten years and has established a premiere quality development team and
user base. Through bridge related projects, including laboratory and on-site
testing, the BEST Center has accumulated years of experience and knowledge
related to bridges.
