The winners of The Structural Awards 2015 have been announced during a ceremony at The Brewery in London.

The Awards, which recognise outstanding achievement by structural engineers from all over the world, are organised each year by The Institution of Structural Engineers.

This year’s Supreme Award for Structural Engineering Excellence went to the Singapore Sports Hub, a complex which boasts the world’s largest free-spanning dome.

Fourteen Awards were presented on the night, recognising all aspects of structural engineering, from the largest projects like bridges and stadia to smaller scale work like innovative housing, heritage restorations and educational buildings. The winners were drawn from nine nations across five continents.

Martin Powell, Chief Executive of 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.”
