Abstract:

The funding will be used to purchase a LiDAR (Light Detection and Ranging) unit to generate external funding in many diverse areas. The investigators will initially seek funding from NSF, transportation agencies, and emergency management agencies for studies on rock cut raveling, movement of highway embankments, and architectural reconstruction respectively. It will be used in measuring bridge deflection during load tests. The Natural Hazards Mitigation Center will use it for forensic investigations of transportation infrastructure damaged by natural hazards. Further applications will be funded from homeland defense initiatives on blast resistance of bridges and tunnels. The use of LIDAR will be revolutionary in the field of geology, geological, civil, and architectural engineering. The equipment will be housed in the PI’s office at 1006 Kingshighway (It will be used primarily on highway field sites). The equipment will be used by Drs. Maerz, Anderson, and Rogers of Geological Engineering, and Dr. Abdul Salaam of Geology for transportation related research on highway slopes, embankments, and rock cuts. It will also be used by Drs. Maerz and Baur of Civil, Env., and Arch. Engineering, for research on transportation Infrastructure, including bridge deflection load testing. /Abstract from report summary page/
