Research Site of the I/UCRC entitled"Repair of Building and Bridges with Composites "

位于北卡罗来纳州州立大学的工业/大学合作研究中心（I/UCRC）的研究中心名为“用复合材料修复建筑物和桥梁（RB 2C）”，是目前位于密苏里大学罗拉分校的I/UCRC的延伸。 位于北卡罗来纳州的研究中心将专注于满足建筑行业在开发新的和创新的结构部件方面的需求，以及使用先进复合材料对现有结构进行加固/修复的方法。 该基地的主要研究活动将包括：利用北卡罗来纳州州立大学纺织学院与纺织工业和纤维生产商合作开发的三维编织技术;安装、理解、制造和使用更耐用的建筑材料;使用安装在建筑工地的独特环境试验室，在恶劣的环境条件下对拟议的先进建筑材料的耐久性进行了检查。设施实验室（CFL），北卡罗来纳州州立大学;开发新的建筑材料，用于修复钢结构使用高强度和模量复合材料;和标准化和代码批准的产品和设计控制，教育和转让技术的行业。

The Research Site of the Industry/University Cooperative Research Center (I/UCRC) entitled "Repair of Buildings and Bridges with Composites (RB2C)" at North Carolina State University is an extension to the currently active I/UCRC located at the University of Missouri-Rolla. The research site at North Carolina State will focus on addressing the needs of the construction industry in development of new and innovative structural components as well as strengthening/repair methods for existing structures using advanced composite materials. The primary research activities of the site will involve: use of the three-dimensional weaving technology, developed by the College of Textiles at North Carolina State University in cooperation with the textile industry and the fiber producer; Installation, understanding, manufacturing and use of more durable construction materials; Examination of the durability of the proposed advanced construction materials under severe environmental conditions using the unique environmental chamber installed at the Constructed Facilities Laboratory (CFL), North Carolina State University; Develop new construction materials for rehabilitation of steel structures using high strength and modulus composite materials; and Standardization and code approval of products and design control, education and transfer of technology to industry.
