A fantastic evening celebrating the remarkable work of structural engineers throughout the world!


Changes To The Awards

This year saw exciting changes to the Awards to recognise the incredible way structural engineers around the world are responding to emerging issues in construction – particularly the climate crisis.

In place of award categories, entries are judged against four key attributes that exemplify structural engineering achievement:

Planet, People, Process and Profession.


Triton Square

Awarded for showcasing the power of circular economy principles across all aspects of a project




The Arc, Green School


A replacement gymnasium was required at Green School. Utilising the existing foundations the roof of The Arc was created from a series of bamboo bundle arches connected by bamboo lattice anticlastic saddles.


At 14m x 19m the structure’s strength came from its form, with the arches and saddle surfaces acting compositely. 

Awarded for: Advancing the structure application of low-carbon materials


The Gramophone Works

The Gramophone Works is a new landmark canal side commercial scheme comprising a mix of refurbished, extended and new build contemporary office spaces in West London.

Awarded for: Exemplar use of timber at scale in a retrofit project



London South Bank University


London Road building is a refurbished and extension project of an existing four storey reinforced concrete framed building from the 1970’s.

Awarded for transformative sustainable design through minimal intervention.



Sam – Our Engineering Apprentice

A fantastic night celebrating the extraordinary work of Structural Engineers across the world!

The winners and commended projects were announced during The Structural Awards ceremony, held at The Brewery on Friday 13 November.

The evening culminated in the presentation of The Supreme Award for Structural Engineering Excellence which was awarded to the Singapore Sports Hub, by Arup.

Martin Powell, Chief Executive at The Institution of Structural Engineers, said:

Once again The Structural Awards have delivered a magnificent illustration of the extraordinary work of structural engineers – preserving engineering heritage, finding solutions to the complex demands of the modern world, and shaping the future of our urban environment. This spread of winners illustrates the vital contribution engineers make as creative, innovative problem solvers and the guardians of public safety.
