Engineering for Civil Infrastructure
Active
National Science Foundation
The National Science Foundation is offering a grant opportunity titled "Engineering for Civil Infrastructure". This program supports fundamental research in geotechnical, structural, materials, architectural, and coastal engineering. The goal is to shape the future of the nation's physical civil infrastructure and contribute to climate change adaptation, mitigation, and hazards and disaster resilience. The program considers various types of civil infrastructure, including buildings, residential construction, earth and earth retaining structures, flood protection systems, water and waste disposal systems, energy infrastructure (excluding nuclear), and transportation systems (excluding pavements). The program is particularly interested in research that addresses the challenges of physical civil infrastructure to be resilient and sustainable over its service lifetime. The research should also have broader impacts, such as fostering community welfare and promoting environmentally friendly policies. The program supports research on the behavior of physical civil infrastructure under various conditions, including those caused by climate change, extreme weather events, and natural hazards like earthquakes and tsunamis. It also supports research on geomaterials and infrastructure materials. The program encourages leveraging the Natural Hazards Engineering Research Infrastructure (NHERI) resources in research projects. However, the program does not support research on natural resource exploration or recovery, blasts and explosions, sensor and measurement technologies, or hazard characterization. Proposers are encouraged to contact the ECI Program Officers before submitting a full proposal for guidance on the scope of their research.
