The Institution of Structural Engineers has announced the winners of the 2021 Structural Awards, celebrating the best work across the global structural engineering community<\/h2>\n

The Institution of Structural Engineers<\/a>‘ Structural Awards first took place 54 years ago to recognise the work of the global structural engineering community<\/a>.<\/p>\n

This year’s winners were selected from 53 diverse structures and judged by a panel, chaired by former IStructE President Professor Tim Ibell, on their creativity, quality and sustainability, as well as the ingenuity of the engineering team.<\/p>\n

13 categories were up for grabs and the highly desired Supreme Award for Structural Engineering Excellence was jointly awarded to Christchurch Town Hall, New Zealand and Lille Langebro, Denmark.<\/p>\n

All of the entries demonstrated how structural engineers around the world are acknowledging emerging issues, such as climate change<\/a>, in construction.<\/p>\n

Many of the shortlisted and winning projects exhibited adapted approaches, designed to deliver the same work with more eco-friendly methods.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n

Commenting on this year\u2019s programme, Professor Ibell said, “Massive congratulations to all the winners and thanks to all those who entered. What this year\u2019s submissions demonstrated is how there\u2019s been a shift in attitudes towards green building<\/a>. No doubt we\u2019ll see sustainability become a non-negotiable project requirement, as important as structural integrity, safety and comfort.<\/p>\n

“It will also influence the way these awards are judged going forward, becoming an essential part of the application process. It will help demonstrate how our profession is playing a key role in reducing waste and protecting the environment.”<\/p>\n
