Proposal for Continued Support of Implementation of the National High-Performance Construction Materials and Systems Program

根据该奖项，土木工程研究基金会(CERF)将与国家科学基金会(NSF)和其他政府机构、学术界和行业密切合作，包括来自不同基础建筑材料小组的指定代表，以加强和继续实施一项计划，以确定和开发高性能建筑材料和系统的关键研究计划。这一努力旨在加快这些举措的商业化进程，这些举措对于振兴我国的基础设施和提高我们的全球竞争力至关重要。这一商业化努力加强和补充了在国家科学和技术委员会(NSTC)建筑和建筑(C&A；B)小组委员会下制定的建筑技术目标倡议。重点将放在传播关键研究成果和示范机会以及促进和发展有希望的合作伙伴关系上。

0004151Under this award, the Civil Engineering Research Foundation (CERF) will work closely with the National Science Foundation (NSF) and other government agencies, academia, and industry including designated representatives from different basic construction materials groups to enhance and continue implementation of a program to identify and develop key research initiatives in high-performance construction materials and systems. The effort aims to expedite the commercialization of those initiatives that are essential for the revitalization of the nation's infrastructure and the enhancement of our global competitiveness. This commercialization effort reinforces and complements the Construction Technology Goals initiative developed under the Construction and Building (C&B) Subcommittee of the National Science and Technology Council (NSTC). The emphasis will be on the dissemination of key research findings and demonstration opportunities as well as the promoting and development of promising collaborative partnerships.***
