Special Workshop entitled: The Establishment of an Institute for Emerging Constructed Systems

提高我们的设计和建造高质量的能力 设施将需要技术创新。 研究戏剧 在创新中发挥重要作用。 但有 实施创新的许多障碍。 一个重要的新范例 为了激励内部的技术创新， 建筑业。 一个拟议的战略是基于 建立一个“研究所”，致力于促进“ 优质设施建设”。 该研究所将作为 催化剂的研究方向，发展和 采用跨学科方法设计和 建设 讲习班的目标如下： 第一章 为了确定是否有强烈的共识， “建筑系统研究所”。 （二） 探讨拟议研究所在 国家科学基金与土木工程 职业 第三章 探讨如何落实和资助该研究所。

Improving our ability to design and construct high quality facilities will require technological innovations. Research plays an important role in originating innovations. However, there are many barriers to implementing innovations. A major new paradigm is necessary in order to stimulate technological innovations within the Construction Industry. One proposed strategy is based on the creation of an "Institute" dedicated to the promotion of " Quality Constructed Facilities". The Institute would serve as the catalyst for research directions, and the development and implementation of interdisciplinary approaches to design and construction. The goals of the workshop are as follows: 1) To establish whether there is a strong consensus for an "Institute for Constructed Systems". 2) To explore the role of the proposed institute within the National Science Foundation and the Civil Engineering Profession. 3) To explore how the Institute could be implemented and funded.
