This year’s shortlist of ground-breaking projects offers a glimpse into a diverse range of buildings, celebrating excellence through exemplary engineering solutions. The buildings, bridges and landmarks created are beyond the ordinary, indicating technical superiority and absolute attention to detail.
Institution Chief Executive, Martin Powell, said: “Structural engineers are the unsung heroes of so many projects and these awards showcase their skill, expertise and creativity.
"Working alongside architects and designers, a structural engineer not only makes the structure look iconic, they ensure it is fit for purpose and safe for our use and enjoyment. Whether it’s a bridge connecting communities or a concert stage designed for our entertainment, structural engineers are the guardians of public safety who ensure any structure can withstand all kinds of stresses and strains.

“The nature of engineering is changing and our awards prove just how innovative our industry is in solving challenges and creating 21st Century solutions. Structural engineers bring truly ambitious and monumental projects to life.”
Following strict judging criteria, shortlisted entries were selected for excellence, creativity and innovation, as well as elegance and detailing. Sustainability, economic viability and value for money, were also core considerations.
The winners will be announced at the Awards Ceremony which takes place on Friday 17 November 2017 at The Brewery, London.
