The Ferguson Laboratory's current activities include sponsored
structural engineering research in traditional and innovative
areas. Results from physical testing, combined with state-of-the-art
analytical models, are used to evaluate the behavior and design
of reinforced concrete, steel, timber, masonry, and composite
structures. Special applications include the performance of buildings,
bridges, and offshore structures, and the repair and rehabilitation
of structures. Study sponsors include the following:
Texas Department of Transportation
