Engineering Research Infrastructures for European Synergies

ERIES is a European project that helps researchers from different countries use some of the best testing facilities in the world. These facilities study how natural foces such as wind or earthquakes affect the safety of structures or cities. The goal is to help scientists work together to find new ways to make our buildings, cities and infrastructure safer, reduce damage and disruption from natural hazards, and create more sustainable, eco-friendly solutions for the future.

Duration
June 2022 - May 2026
Project Manager

ERIES responds to the call INFRA-2021-SERV-01-07: Research infrastructure services advancing frontier knowledge with the overall objective of providing transnational access (TA) to advanced research infrastructures in the fields of structural, seismic, wind and geotechnical engineering. This project, together with the research infrastructure team assembled, provides access to leading experimental facilities that permit users to advance frontier knowledge and conduct curiosity-driven research towards: the reduction of losses and disruption due to these hazards; the management of their associated risk; and the development of innovative solutions to address them that will contribute to a greener and more sustainable society.
