Overview

The Heilongjiang Provincial Key Laboratory of Bridge Construction Control, Inspection, and Strengthening Technology is affiliated with Northeast Forestry University. It was proposed by the College of Civil Engineering and Transportation Engineering (formerly the College of Civil Engineering) and officially approved by the Heilongjiang Provincial Department of Science and Technology in December 2017. Established against the backdrop of the rapid development of the national transportation industry, the laboratory focuses on addressing technical challenges in the construction control of newly built bridges and the safety and health of existing bridge structures. It aims to advance the discipline of Bridge and Tunnel Engineering comprehensively, promote interdisciplinary integration, cultivate high-level professionals in the field of bridge engineering, serve the needs of engineering construction and social development, contribute to the long-term advancement of transportation science and technology in Heilongjiang Province, and provide strong technological support for the revitalization of the old industrial base of Heilongjiang Province.

The laboratory has demonstrated strong development momentum, receiving the Heilongjiang Provincial Science and Technology Innovation Base Award in 2020 and 2022. It currently has 25 full-time researchers, including six professors, 12 associate professors and senior engineers, and seven lecturers and engineers, with 17 holding doctoral degrees. The laboratory covers an area of 1,100 square meters and possesses equipment valued at approximately 11 million RMB.

Since its establishment, the laboratory has undertaken over 350 research projects, with total project funding exceeding 38 million RMB. Researchers have published more than 170 academic papers, including 97 indexed by SCI and 40 indexed by EI, and have been granted 38 patents, including 12 invention patents.
