To understand the specific contents of bridge construction risk assessment and the development trend in the past year, and to carry out the better follow-up research on the basis of summarizing the research content, methods and achievements, the recent literatures were consulted, classified, summarized and commented from four aspects of the bridge construction risk identification, risk probability and loss estimation, risk assessment and control, dynamic risk assessment. The results show that the composite risk identification method, risk identification database system and visualization were developing continuously. The quantitative probability correction based on monitoring data and the construction of social loss model were the new development of risk probability and loss estimation. The new development of risk assessment was based on clustering or data field risk assessment method and the improvement of model accuracy. The fine modification of risk chain transferring model and dynamic evaluation model based on monitoring data were the new directions of dynamic risk assessment. Finally, some suggestions were put forward for the shortcomings of the existing research and the further development of this direction, which can be references for the work to be done in the future.
