Kilnbridge Wins 2024 Tekla BIM Awards – Infrastructure Projects

4 June 2024

Kilnbridge is the winner of the 2024 UK Tekla Awards – Infrastructure Projects. Our entry featured our complex brief to upgrade Gatwick Airport Station whilst keeping the transport hub live for the millions of passengers who move through the airport every year.

Terry Murphy, Technical Director at Kilnbridge, had this to say about the entry, “Over the last number of years, we have always had the goal of having a Steel Structures entry into the Tekla awards, but we also felt it needed to be the right project and we believe this one is.

“Steelwork detailers normally operate in the background of every construction project and are rarely if ever exposed to the external appreciation or plaudits that the more visible construction roles are. They provide a critical role in the planning, Health and Safety, construction methodology development, as it is in this design phase of the project that the majority of those decisions are made and on this project alone, our detailers were responsible for identifying and flagging numerous emerging issues during the model development that may otherwise have gone unnoticed and proved costly later in the project.

“The Tekla Awards provide a unique opportunity not only for the companies who undertake these projects to be recognised, but just as importantly, to acknowledge specifically, the invaluable contribution made by the individuals involved in design and detailing roles by giving us a platform to promote their achievements.”
