Aims
NCREE is aiming to improve seismic resistant designs for all constructions and to provide feedback to the engineering community through research and development. The Center was built for researchers to collaborate and check their theories by doing various experiments. Their goals are:
- Establish and provide research facilities.
- Develop and improve the seismic engineering database.
- Create and carry-out regulations relating to seismic design codes.
- Co-ordinate and Integrate academic institutes and related industries.
- Introduce, Develop and Educate on seismic-resisting technology.

Famous quotes containing the word aims:
“Whoever aims publicly at great things and at length perceives secretly that he is too weak to achieve them, has usually also insufficient strength to renounce his aims publicly, and then inevitably becomes a hypocrite.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
“A lie is real; it aims at success. A liar is a realist.”
—Christina Stead (1902–1983)
“Since he aims at great souls, he cannot miss. But if someone should slander me in this way, no one would believe him. For envy goes against the powerful. Yet slight men, apart from the great, are but a weak bulwark.”
—Sophocles (497–406/5 B.C.)
