Center for Civil Engineering Earthquake Research (CCEER)
Earthquake Engineering Expertise
For more than 30 years, we've been conducting 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 conduct cutting-edge research. The result? Engineered structures that are better able to withstand an earthquake's destructive force, saving both lives and money.
