Structural Steel Design Awards

The objective of the Structural Steel Design Awards is to celebrate the excellence of the United Kingdom in the field of steel construction, particularly demonstrating its potential in terms of efficiency, cost effectiveness, aesthetics, sustainability and innovation. Successful projects are expected to have a minimum threshold of excellence in architectural and engineering terms and to be cost effective.
