LTBP Team

World-class expertise, diverse experience, unprecedented collaboration.

Rutgers’ CAIT and Parsons Brinckerhoff (PB) have assembled an outstanding team that covers the gamut of infrastructure research: inspection, testing, and monitoring; bridge design; computer modeling; and data management and analysis. Capitalizing on existing resources and collective knowledge, CAIT will draw on several sources that have long-standing bridge experience.

The Rutgers, Utah State, and UC Berkeley programs are all University Transportation Centers (UTC), a consortium of research institutions sanctioned and supported by the Research and Innovative Technology Administration (RITA) of the U.S. Department of Transportation.
