    Our new journal article entitled "Automating closed-loop structural safety management for bridge construction through multisource data integration" has published online in Advances in Engineering Software. In this paper, an integrated framework for closed-loop management of structural safety based on multisource data integration is presented. The proposed framework consists of a bridge safety information model (BrSIM), algorithms for data integration and semi-automatic time-dependent structural model generation, and methods for structural safety warning and assessment. The proposed BrSIM and algorithms integrate data related to 3D products, schedule, structural simulation and monitoring from various engineering systems, which covers the main data for structural safety management during construction. The research results were applied to the Shiji Yellow River Bridge Project. By tracking and simulating changes in structural performance over time, and comparing differences between simulation results and monitoring data, early detection and better assessment of potential structural risks were achieved.
