Center



  The Repair of Buildings and Bridges with Composites (RB2C) is a National Science Foundation Industry-University Cooperative Research Center. Based at the North Carolina State University, the center is an integral part of the Constructed Facilities Laboratory (CFL). The center focuses on addressing the needs of the construction industry in the areas of rehabilitation and strengthening of existing structures using the novel, untapped potential of advanced composite materials and technologies.

The center makes possible the opportunity to integrate the knowledge, experience, interests and resources of industry partners with university research. Industry partners provide expertise and resources in the design and application of advanced composites; University partners provide technical expertise and research resources. The center creates a forum for technology development and transfer that could not be achieved by any of the individual participants.
