Road and Railway Engineering

Roads, railways and airfields are of vital importance for a modern society. The value of this infrastructure is tremendous and careful management and maintenance are essential to maintain and develop business and municipals in Norway.
Areas of Expertise

The department for Road and Railway Engineering has knowledge and expertise doing research on building and maintenance of transport infrastructure. In co-operation with NTNU in a Gemini-centre we have an advanced laboratory and test both typical and more unusual materials that are used in construction and rehabilitation of roads, airfields and railways.

We also do research in the field and have developed systems for condition surveys. We have developed the pavement management system (PMS) that is used for optimisation of asphalt rehabilitation in Norway.
