Who We AreThe demands of new and existing structures imposed by society and by economics and the use of new or advanced materials require advanced solutions that challenge and unite creativity and scientific rigour. Existing infrastructure in the developed world is aging, and strengthening and rehabilitating bridges, buildings, dams and other critical infrastructure is an equally demanding challenge to creative engineering solutions. The Centre for Infrastructure Engineering and Safety (CIES) was established as a University of New South Wales Research Centre in 2007 to undertake advanced research in all aspects of civil engineering infrastructure embodying building structures, bridges, dams, tunnels, roads, pavements and more. CIES is underpinned by eminent academic staff with strong international reputations in their respective fields, particularly in structural engineering, engineering mechanics and computational mechanics. The Director of the Centre is Federation Fellow, Scientia Professor and Professor of Civil Engineering, Mark Bradford. We conduct pure and applied research and undertake commercial activity in collaboration with industry, with our well-resourced computational and large scale testing facilities providing the essential physical resources.
