A Center for Innovative Design, Diagnostics, and the Maintenance of Constructed Facilities is planned at West Virginia University. The Center will be a joint venture with the West Virginia Department of Highways, West Virginia University, and various private institutions representing materials and manufactured products. The center will focus on the transformation of innovative ideas and techniques into practical application for the nation's existing infrastructure. Efficient and durable structures utilizing combinations of conventional, composite, and new materials will be developed for existing as well as new facilities. Contemporary computer technologies will be integrated with modern transducers to produce new diagnostic techniques and tools to improve the productivity and reliability of inspection and maintenance engineers. Emphasis will be given to the identification of safety problems associated with constructed facilities and to design and analysis based on expert systems concepts and life-cycle costs. The final products of the Center will be ones that can be used directly by practicing engineers.

西弗吉尼亚大学计划建立一个创新设计、诊断和建筑设施维护中心。该中心将与西弗吉尼亚州公路部、西弗吉尼亚大学以及代表材料和制成品的各种私营机构合资。该中心将专注于将创新理念和技术转化为国家现有基础设施的实际应用。将为现有设施和新设施开发利用传统材料、复合材料和新材料组合的高效耐用结构。现代计算机技术将与现代传感器相结合，产生新的诊断技术和工具，以提高检测和维护工程师的生产力和可靠性。重点将放在查明与已建设施有关的安全问题，以及根据专家系统概念和寿命周期成本进行设计和分析。该中心的最终产品将是那些可以直接使用的执业工程师。
