New category for Timber Design Awards honours engineers

The Australian Timber Design Awards has introduced a new category to honour engineering in timber design – Merit – Excellence in Engineering. The award aims to recognise engineering as an essential aspect of the design of timber structures. Source: Timberbiz

This year the awards will celebrate an individual engineer or engineering companies that have designed a superior commercial or residential space using timber.

The process is in two parts; firstly, the project has to be an entrant in this year’s awards. From these entries, input from the public will be sort to assist in the selection of the winner.

The project does not have to be the most stunning or most prominent; it’s the excellence in engineering input that is being sorted.

This category is sponsored by MassLam, a producer of Australian mass timber.

The Australian Timber Design Awards entries must be in by 31 July 2021. Visit https://www.timberdesignawards.com.au/
