Researchers at Colorado State University developed a resilience-based framework that significantly improves recovery planning for transportation networks after earthquakes. The methodology integrates both traffic efficiency and safety.
Research at South Dakota State University could lead to new, less-damaging products and procedures for keeping roads and runways ice free. Chloride-based deicers are essential for ensuring road safety in cold seasons.
Researchers at Utah State University have developed a non-proprietary ultra-high-performance concrete (UHPC) mix that will be at least 50% less expensive than proprietary mixes.
Researchers at the University of Colorado Denver examined bridge beams reinforced with ultra-high performance concrete and carbon fiber reinforced polymer to determine how they perform under a combination of stresses such as cyclical structural loading and high temperatures.
