ABSTRACTThe BICE's program of studies and activities assists government to provide appropriateleadership in the building and construction industries and in the broader area of infrastructure services. It offers a mechanism for bringing together the expertise of the nation's professional, academic, and government communities to address major issues of national significance. The focus areas of the BICE's program are:o Socio-technical interfaces and infrastructure systems analysiso Impact of the built environment on human health and productivityo Facility and infrastructure performance and its measuremento Security of facilities, infrastructure, and public spaceso Improving multi-hazard resilience of the built environmento Integration of information technology and infrastructure systemso Sustainable communities and infrastructureso Construction and utilization of underground spaceo Effects of extreme events on the built environmento Construction methods and operations. The BICE does not conduct studies per se; however, the board does have oversight responsibility for BICE committees and panels that do conduct studies for government sponsors. The BICE provides an independent, multidisciplinary forum for experts from a wide range of scientific, engineering, and social science specialties to address problems and issues of infrastructure and the built environment. The BICE provides a unique structure to explore emerging issues in response to specific requests from government agencies or to act on its own initiative. In pursuit of its goals, BICE conducts on-going strategic planning exercises and convenes a variety of workshops, symposia, and information dissemination activities.Broader ImpactThe BICE is vitally interested in the role that well planned, -constructed, and -operatedinfrastructure must play in sustaining the economic and environmental health of our nation and the cities and communities that comprise it. In the interest of continually advancing our understanding of the built environment, and its social implications, the BICE fosters discussion among policy-makers and practitioners through the sponsorship of workshops, colloquia, and other interactive public forums.

BICE的研究和活动计划帮助政府在建筑和施工行业以及更广泛的基础设施服务领域提供适当的领导。它提供了一个机制，汇集了国家的专业，学术和政府社区的专门知识，以解决国家的重大问题。BICE计划的重点领域是：o社会技术界面和基础设施系统分析o建筑环境对人类健康和生产力的影响o设施和基础设施性能及其测量o设施、基础设施和公共空间的安全o提高建筑物的多灾恢复能力o信息技术和基础设施系统的整合o可持续社区和基础设施o地下空间的建设和利用o极端事件对建筑物的影响o建筑方法和运营。BICE本身并不进行研究;然而，董事会确实对BICE委员会和为政府赞助商进行研究的小组负有监督责任。BICE为来自科学，工程和社会科学领域的专家提供了一个独立的多学科论坛，以解决基础设施和建筑环境的问题。BICE提供了一个独特的结构，以探讨新出现的问题，以回应政府机构的具体要求或采取主动行动。为了实现其目标，天主教儿童局进行了持续的战略规划工作，并召开了各种讲习班、专题讨论会和信息传播活动。及─运营基础设施必须在维持我们国家以及组成它的城市和社区的经济和环境健康方面发挥作用。为了加深对建筑环境及其社会影响的理解，BICE通过赞助研讨会，座谈会和其他互动公共论坛，促进政策制定者和从业人员之间的讨论。
