Federal Infrastructure R & D: Meeting State and Local Public Works Needs.

Abstract

This report provides an executive summary of an interagency study, facilitated by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and conducted under the auspices of the Construction Engineering Research Foundation (CERF), of a five-stage technology transfer process which identified promising public works technologies in Federal laboratories and matched them with public works needs in the private sector. The Program began with a survey of public works needs, followed up with a canvass of existing Federal technologies which might meet those needs. The process concluded by matching needs and technologies to identify potentially high-payoff commercialization prospects.
