Centre for Infrastructure Engineering and Safety
World-class interdisciplinary research, construction and risk management of buildings, bridges, dams, roads and other infrastructure.
The Centre for Infrastructure Engineering and Safety (CIES) was established as a University of New South Wales Research Centre in January 2007 to facilitate advanced research in all aspects of civil engineering infrastructure, embodying building structures, bridges, tunnels, roads, railways, pavements, dams and the like. It has expanded to include construction management, advanced systems and low-carbon technologies.
The core activities of the Infrastructure Centre are underpinned by a significant number of eminent academic staff of international renown in their respective fields, particularly in structural engineering, geotechnical engineering, construction management, advanced materials engineering, pavement engineering, engineering mechanics, computational mechanics and in laboratory testing.
