The team cares to learn as much as they can about problems in construction and monitoring of civil infrastructure using the most powerful tools available to us &#8230; and to enjoy the process! Our ultimate hope is to learn something that others can, then develop a methodology or procedure or model that proves useful in alleviating the serious treats to infrastructure.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The Advanced Analytics Lab research and development activities provide a bridge between the Construction community, the Information technology community, and other disciplines.
