Icair: Integrated Civil And Infrastructure Research Centre

ICAIR delivers specialised research and consulting expertise with state-of-the-art engineering testing capabilities. These have been specifically designed to identify practical and efficient solutions for our research collaborators and industrial clients, meeting the needs across the disciplines of construction, control engineering and infrastructure design, construction and operation. A strong focus of ICAIR is translating disruptive technologies from sectors such as advanced manufacturing, robotics and autonomous systems to the construction and infrastructure sectors. As part of the UK Collaboratorium for Research on Infrastructure in Cities, ICAIR hosts the National Distributed Water Infrastructure Facility (NDWIF); a unique laboratory for research into the performance of distributed urban water infrastructure. Together with the Urban Flows Observatory, these facilities position the University of Sheffield at the forefront of research into next generation infrastructure. Funded jointly by the University of Sheffield, the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC) and the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF), ICAIR brings together an interdisciplinary team of researchers to accelerate innovation and develop long-term collaborations between academia and industry.
