- Quantity
- Construction method
- Aesthetics
- Total costs
- Collaboration throughout the supply chain
- Global landmark projects using steel as the construction material of choice.
Prize
The prize will be delivered during the awards ceremony to take place at the constructsteel annual conference in (date and location TBD).
- A constructsteel Award trophy to be awarded.
- A slot in the constructsteel annual conference will be provided to showcase the project/practice/innovation/solution.
- Social media promotion via constructsteel communications channels.
- Free registration to constructsteel’s steel solution platform (for 3 years).

Judging panel and criteria
- There will be a judging panel consisting of internal and external judges. The external judges are the constructsteel Global Advisory Committee (GAC) and they will do the first round of review or pre-selection. Pre-selected nominations will then be sent to the constructsteel Leadership Team for the second round of review. Final scores reflect scores of both external and internal judges.
- Projects that prioritize material efficiency through reduction, reuse, recyclability, and innovative manufacturing processes will be given greater weight by the Global Award Committee (GAC).
- Based on the supporting evidence provided, the judges will assign a rating (1-10) for each criterion. The following is an example illustrating the overall score for a nomination.
Representative example
Criteria for innovation | Weighting 1-10 (w) | Rating 1-10 (r) | Score = w x r |
Decarbonisation | 10 | 6 | 60 |
Creativity | 9 | 10 | 90 |
Aesthetics | 7 | 0 | 0 |
Social impact | 8 | 9 | 72 |
Technical advancement | 9 | 7 | 63 |
Cost effectiveness | 9 | 4 | 36 |
Impact on steel construction industry | 9 | 8 | 72 |
Overall score | 393 |
This is for illustration only; criteria weighting may change.
