  • ERDC robotics team advances future of combat engineering at PC-C5

    A team from the U.S. Army Engineer Research and Development Center (ERDC) recently played a key role in a major Army exercise called Project Convergence Capstone 5 (PC-C5). During this event, ERDC’s Robotics for Engineer Operations (REO) put their robotic technologies to the test in realistic, hands-on scenarios that simulate combat situations, showing how systems perform and hold up under pressure, making an important contribution to Army readiness.

  • ERDC leads Operational Energy training for the Zambia Defense Force

    The U.S. Army Engineer Research and Development Center (ERDC) recently led an Operational Energy (OE) training course for the Zambia Defense Force (ZDF), reinforcing military partnerships between the U.S. and Africa while advancing energy resilience and sustainability on the continent.

  • ERDC leads demonstration of hydrogen fueled equipment at National Guard site in Illinois

    The U.S. Army Engineer Research and Development Center's (ERDC) Construction Engineering Research Laboratory (CERL) is advancing energy resiliency and reliability by using hydrogen as a sustainable, renewable energy source. ERDC-CERL is spearheading research and development efforts to integrate hydrogen energy solutions into military operations, aiming to provide clean backup energy systems that enhance the energy independence of Department of Defense (DoD) installations.

  • ERDC plays critical role in review of first 3D printed Army barracks

    The U.S. Army is taking a giant leap into the future of military construction with the debut of its first-ever additively constructed (3D-printed) Army barracks in Fort Bliss, Texas, and the U.S. Army Engineer Research and Development Center (ERDC) played an important role in making the demonstration successful.

  • Successful ERDC seismic test advances readiness of mass timber shelter

    The U.S. Army Engineer Research and Development Center (ERDC) took a significant step in transforming contingency construction. In November 2024, researchers conducted a seismic test on an eco-conscious mass timber shelter that highlights the future of relocatable Cross-Laminated Timber (CLT) structures.

  • ERDC Celebrates Milestone with GridStar® Flow Battery Installation at Fort Carson

    The U.S. Army Engineer Research and Development Center's (ERDC) Operational Energy (OE) team is celebrating the construction and installation of the GridStar® Flow system, a redox flow battery solution designed for long-duration, large-capacity energy storage applications. The flow system is installed at Fort Carson, Colorado, and ERDC has led the technical evaluation and project management since 2022.

  • ERDC researchers discovering hidden caves in Alaska

    The U.S. Army Engineer Research Development Center's (ERDC) Construction Engineering Research Laboratory (CERL) is leading a study alongside the University of Alabama in Huntsville (UAH) and the U.S. Forest Service (USFS) to document cave biodiversity in the TNF and explore how these unique subterranean communities are connected using molecular genetic tools.

  • ERDC scientists pioneer 3-D ice printing

    Research scientists at the U.S. Army Engineer Research and Development Center (ERDC) have successfully demonstrated a novel method of 3-D printing with ice reinforced with natural fibers.

  • International Bat Week: ERDC goes to bat to protect winged allies

    According to the Department of Defense (DOD) Natural Resources Program, more than 300 military installations will be potentially affected by at least one bat species listing under the Endangered Species Act in the next five years. Researchers from ERDC's Construction Engineering Research Laboratory (CERL) and Environmental Laboratory (EL) are at the forefront of innovative projects aimed at understanding and preserving bat populations on DoD installations.

  • ERDC partners with UW-Madison and NPS to advance historic preservation

    A team of experts from ERDC's Construction Engineering Research Laboratory, the University of Wisconsin-Madison, and the National Park Service is using advanced fiber optic technology and 3D scanning to improve historic preservation and structural monitoring.
