Winners of the Structural Steel Design Awards

Awards for efficiency, cost effectiveness, aesthetics, sustainability and innovation.

On Wednesday 5 October 2016, the 48th Structural Steel Design Awards took place at the Museum of London. The awards, hosted by the British Constructional Steelwork Association (BCSA), in conjunction with Steel for Life, celebrated the UK excellence of the steel construction industry.

The competition was open to completed steel based structures in the UK or overseas that had been built by UK or Irish steelwork contractors, and the five winners were:

  • London Olympic Roof Conversion
  • Thames Tower Redevelopment, Reading
  • Etihad Stadium
  • Harlech Footbridge
  • The Memorial Spire, International Bomber Command Centre, Lincoln.

President of the BCSA, Wendy Coney said: “Tonight’s shortlist demonstrates that steel is … the structural material of choice for schools, offices, sports stadia, power generation facilities, footbridges, and a wide range of other structures. Much has changed since our 2015 Awards ceremony. It has been a tumultuous year for UK steelmakers. But the supply of structural steel was unaffected and confidence in steel as the framing material of choice has been maintained.”

Congratulations to the winners!
