As foreign governments continue to heavily invest in the development of various rising nations, we have seen significant infrastructure updates coast coast across the African continent. Whether highways, railways, or new building the urbanization of traditimally smaller cities shows no sign of slowing down .
Although Infrasture updates begin in the planning phase onto the design phase, and Is finally executed during construction. The successful implementation of design projects and highest potential of R.O.I is affected by proper construction in accrdance to design requirement and continued maintenance post construction. Designers need to consider maintenance needs early in the process. Typically maintenance is less likely to occur if it’s is greatly inconvenient, i.e. poor/limited access, insufficient data, or poor instruction,
research shows that proper maintenance can In crease the anticipated design life and save costs over in the long run, and prevent/reduce potential of fatal events/incidents/accidents due to structural failures. To engineer is human…however monitoring can greatry minimize these risks (add technical references for this paragraph )
Both Structurally sound and deficient preexisting infrastructure can benefit from routine maintenance and monitoring activities to evaluate safety and.struxtural.integrity of the facility. ( move this paragrap to befor the previous one. Add links or data on this principle..structural deficient structure monitoring. Kenya video)
sustainability and reliability of the rising infrastructure will not happen by accident but by intentional and decisive preemptive actions to reduce human error, weather the wearing factors from continuous use, and potentially save lives (final paragraph )
