Abstract: In the present scenario the deterioration of bridges causing many problems. Numbers of steel brides are increasing throughout world but maintenance is also responsible task due to the lack of maintenance it gets corroded due to that strength will be affected. Therefore work to be carried out in this paper present the condition of Railway Bridge at Godavari. Based on the visual inspection the defects like corrosion prone areas, rivet missing and member deterioration etc., were identified. Based on the field conditions model is prepare by using TEKLA STRUCTURES subjected to load conditions and the stress ranges are obtained by using STAAD.PRO software. Corrosion prone members are experimentally tested for calculating the percentage of corrosion on the structure and it affects on the strength parameters. Recommendation for rehabilitation of members will be suggested based on the corrosion percentage
