CIR Virtual Tours Available Now!

October 2, 2020 by Kathrine Bradshaw

The Center for Infrastructure Renewal (CIR) recently worked with Clegg Unlimited and can now offer 3D virtual tours of the center’s facilities. Learn how we make asphalt and concrete are made to last – how we combat the corrosion of bridges and buildings – how the power grid lights cities – and so much more!

Virtual Tour Lobby

 

The center boasts over 138,000 square feet with 11 labs and more than 10,000 square feet of conference space. Research areas included advanced manufacturing and construction, concrete infrastructure and cements, infrastructure sensors and connectivity, asphalt and flexible pavement, structures, the electrical grid and corrosion.

For a complete list of labs and spaces at the CIR that can be viewed virtually, you can visit here. If you would like to schedule a guided virtual tour, please email [email protected].

Founded by Joseph Clegg, former Aggie, Clegg Unlimited is driven to create highly detailed and interactive virtual tours that provide an experience better than real life.

Pravin Saraswatula received the American Coal Ash Association Educational Foundation (ACAAEF) scholarship.

September 17, 2020 by Kathrine Bradshaw

PhD student, Saraswatula, Pravin with Dr. Mukhopadhyay’s team in the Concrete Innovation Lab at the CIR, has received the American Coal Ash Association Educational Foundation (ACAAEF) scholarship. Pravin’s essay focused on linking pore solution chemistry of concrete with CCPs to ASR potential through machine learning as a performance-based approach. The scholarship award recipients were announced in a press release on July 6th. ACAA will be recognizing the scholarship winners on their website and in their magazine, Ash at Work.

The ACAA Educational Foundation is a financially self-sustaining, not-for-profit organization which promotes the understanding of coal combustion products (CCP) management and utilization through communications and outreach initiatives that are aimed at government and industry decision makers and the public.

Pravin Saraswatula was also recently Runner Up in the PhD student category for the 2020 Keese Wootan Transportation Fellowship by Texas A&M Transportation Institute (TTI). This fellowship was established to honor two long-time directors of the Institute, and recognizes and rewards TTI employees who are full-time or part-time graduate students at Texas A&M University.
