The Resilient and Sustainable Building (RSB) is a collaborative NSF-funded
research project at Virginia Tech to develop a comprehensive framework for the
early design of mid-rise office building. The main goal of this project is to
optimize office buildings performance in terms of economic constraints and
environmental impacts.</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0in 0in 0.0001pt;font-size:12pt;font-family:Calibri,sans-serif"> </p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0in 0in 0.0001pt;font-size:12pt;font-family:Calibri,sans-serif">This summer, <b>RSB is
offering four paid undergraduate research</b> <b>positions</b> to help with two ongoing thrusts of the project:
structural analysis under natural hazards and environmental life cycle
assessment. The anticipated duration of REU is 8-weeks and the interested
applicants should be US citizen or permanent resident and enrolled in a US
