ABOUT THE AWARDS
The program of local and global Tekla Awards has been running for many years to recognise the hard work, innovation and pride that Tekla customers put into their work. This year we have included a new award category for users of Tekla Structural Designer.
The UK Tekla Awards 2019 winners will progress to the Global Tekla BIM Awards 2020*.
*The Tekla Structural Designer Award is UK and Ireland only.
THE PRIZES
Each year the winners of the UK Tekla Awards are invited to join us for a celebratory meal where you can network with other winners, perhaps take part in an outdoor activity, and enjoy a delicious lunch away from the office in a relaxed atmosphere. In addition to the event you will receive a trophy for your cabinet, a certificate for your wall and we will create a press release for your use, as well as benefiting from the publicity created by Trimble’s promotion of the awards.
All category winners* are submitted to the Global Tekla BIM Awards 2020.

THE JUDGING CRITERIA
We will be looking for: collaboration between multiple participants and use of IFC and open BIM; challenges solved with Tekla Structures or Tekla Structural Designer; perhaps a multi-material aspect or complexity of geometry; and most importantly the cool factor - uniqueness of the project and creativity in the project execution.
All projects entered are opened up to review by the public, who then vote for their favourite.
TEKLA STRUCTURAL DESIGNER CATEGORY
The 2019 Tekla Awards introduces Tekla Structural Designer (TSD) as a new category this year. The competition offers Tekla Structural Designer users the opportunity to showcase their concrete and steel structural designs, and demonstrate how to put the software’s functionality to best use.
ENTER YOUR PROJECT
The closing date for entries into the UK Tekla Awards 2019 is Friday 29th March. This is your opportunity to promote your project, so think about what you want to say before you start. What is unique or innovative about the project? Why did it work well? How did you company or the project team benefit from the model? How did it help the build process? What was cool about it? What made you proud to be part of it?
Promote your work to the world!
