The editorial panels of individual journals nominate the best articles, and the awards are decided by the Institution of Civil Engineers Awards Committee. This year, the committee was chaired by former ICE president, Prof. Tim Broyd from University College London.
In this year’s edition, over 5,200 scientific articles were evaluated. The award was presented to Prof. Waldemar Magda by ICE president, David Porter, during the ICE Publishing Awards gala organized by the Institution of Civil Engineers – the oldest engineering institution in the world.
