Projects
- Structural Dynamics students work with CIEST to apply learning in labs.
- Experimental Methods in Structural Engineering apply learning with CIEST
- ASCE student chapters have designed and raced concrete canoes in the National Concrete Canoe Competition since the early 1970s.
- Â鶹ÒùÔº in the American Society of Civil Engineers at CU Boulder compete annually against other universities in the region at the ASCE regional conference to design and construct a steel truss bridge.
- CIEST assists Mechanics of Materials I and II in their practical labs.
- The Los Angeles Department of Water and Power (LADWP) is currently replacing many of its open reservoirs with buried, reinforced-concrete structures to improve water quality.
- This Faculty Early Career Development (CAREER) grant will create a new approach for evaluating the behavior of clusters of buildings on liquefiable ground during earthquakes and pave the way toward designing mitigation measures that improve building performance at a system level.
- This project will study the seismic response of temporary and permanent cut-and-cover box structures near mid- to high-rise buildings using a combination of centrifuge testing and numerical simulations.
- The Western Transportation Institue has conducted a series of modelling tests of deep patch repairing method used in Highway in our 400 g-ton centrifuge.
