INDUSTRY

The Australian Centre for Infrastructure Durability (ACID) will provide support to industry across five key sectors:

MINING OIL AND GAS TRANSPORTATION AND BUILDINGS WATER AND DESALINATION DEFENCE AND AEROSPACE

Whilst each of these sectors is separate and has distinct characteristics and issues, there are areas of research that will also be applicable across sectors. ACID will assist in aligning industry needs with the relevant research expertise and capabilities to find the right solutions.

Industry liaison and linkages with ACID are facilitated by an ACID ‘Industry Lead’. Industry Leads are experienced and capable industry people working in and familiar with a specific sector and they assist in the identification of challenges in this area and opportunities for critical research.
