Civil Engineering Department(CED) test
Civil Engineering Department is one of the oldest departments and established 40 Years ago. Most popular cost effective building technology was started by one of the pioneers of NERD Centre, late Vidyajothi Dr. A.N.S. Kulasinghe. There after lot of engineers contributed their knowledge to uplift the cost effective building technology and other development of infrastructures. So far, there are lot of cost effective buildings were constructed around the country in each district in provinces including all Northern and southern provinces. At present main objective of the Civil Department is to carry out R & D activities (Research and Development Activities) by introducing and developing new construction materials and technologies for the development of the Country. Civil Engineering Department involves transferring the cost effective NERDC technology for the public through training programmes around the Country to establish entrepreneurs in the construction field. sample
Development & Projects Department (DPD)
