Cooperation with industry
The Klokner Institute of the Czech Technical University combines not only research and teaching activities but also cooperates across disciplines. In addition to team projects with other universities or private contractors, it develops considerable activity in domestic and foreign cooperation with industrial companies. Linking knowledge and testing procedures enables the reliability of building structures to be carefully controlled.
