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

位于北卡罗来纳州立大学的工业/大学合作研究中心（I/UCRC）名为“用复合材料修复建筑物和桥梁（RB2C）”的研究基地是目前位于密苏里大学罗拉分校的工业/大学合作研究中心的延伸。北卡罗莱纳州立大学的研究基地将专注于解决建筑行业在开发新型和创新结构部件以及使用先进复合材料加强/修复现有结构方法方面的需求。该基地的主要研究活动将包括：使用由北卡罗来纳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、了解、制造和使用更耐用的建筑材料；使用安装在北卡罗莱纳州立大学建筑设施实验室（CFL）的独特环境室，对所建议的先进建筑材料在恶劣环境条件下的耐久性进行了检查；开发使用高强度和模量复合材料修复钢结构的新建筑材料；产品和设计控制的标准化和规范审批，教育和技术向工业转移。

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.
