Construction Engineering Facilities

The School of Civil and Environmental Engineering at the Georgia Institute of Technology houses two laboratories for construction engineering research and education:

  1. The Construction Information Technology Laboratory (CITL) is a research laboratory that houses fundamental and applied research activities in IT for construction projects. It is equipped with small scale, photorealistic infrastructure models utilized as preliminary research test beds, as well as visual and spatial sensing equipment, such as high resolution video and 3D cameras. For more information, visit http://www.citl.gatech.edu/.
  2. The Real-time Automated Project Information and Decision Systems laboratory (RAPIDS) is a research laboratory used in the development and application of sensing technologies to collect and process construction and transportation related infrastructure data so as to support real-time decision making. The facility is equipped with optical and wireless technologies (laser scanner, RFID, Ultra-Wideband, optical sensors, and many more). For more information, visit http://rapids.ce.gatech.edu/.
