Earthquake engineering expertise

We conduct large-scale, experimental research to make buildings and bridges safer.

Our world-class facilities, which include two high-bay laboratories, offer researchers state-of-the-art equipment and laboratory space to w88 live casinoconduct cutting-edge research. The result? Engineered structures that are better able to withstand an earthquake's destructive force, saving both lives and money.
