Pavement Research Institute launches Web site
The Pavement Research Institute (PRI), directed by Erland Lukanen, has launched its Web site.
The institute was established in 2003 by the University's Department of Civil Engineering (CE) and CTS, along with the Mn/DOT and the Minnesota Local Road Research Board (LRRB). The PRI will develop and coordinate pavement research activities with the University, Mn/DOT, and other funding organizations.
Lukanen serves as a staff resource to the TERRA Board (see related article). PRI hopes to increase pavement research at the University through the expanded partnerships facilitated by TERRA.
The new Web site provides information about past and present pavement-related research projects at the University. In addition, the site features information on faculty and researchers associated with the PRI, research capabilities and facilities, and news about pavement-related findings and events.
