HIGHLIGHTS OF THE GROUP:
The Applied Civil Engineering Group of CSIR – North East Institute
of Science & Technology (Formerly RRL-Jorhat) is committed to research
& development, technical consultancy, testing and evaluation of building
and road materials. The main areas of research include geotechnical and
transportation engineering and have expertise in geo-technical and transportation
engineering. This group is presently involved in R&D work for stabilization of
Brahmaputra river bed materials for use in road construction and modular brick
for building structures. The group is also involved in seismic vulnerability and
risk assessment of buildings of major cities in NE India. The group also renders
technical consultancy services for soil investigation and evaluation of roads, and
testing and evaluation services for road & building materials including soil, cement,
concrete, aggregates, brick and other construction materials. The department had contributed
towards R&D activities in development of ferro-cement products, low cost housing techniques,
light roofing sheets, water filter candles from paddy husk and also in the sector of structural
engineering. Over the years, Applied Civil Engineering Group provided technical consultancy
services in the field of civil engineering for soil investigation and road evaluation to many
organizations in the north east particularly in the sector of construction, testing and evaluation
for quality control of materials.
