'3LSDOD

The enduring beauty of steel bridges is eloquent tribute to the vision and skill of the men who plan, design, and build them. The bridge designer of today is both artist and engineer. He understands the potential for strength and beauty which is inherent in steel structures, and he knows that aesthetic appearance can be achieved at no sacri· fice of efficiency or economy. The simple grace of a highway overpass, no less than the majestic sweep of a river crossing, reflects a creative integration of structure, function and form, skill· fully executed in beautiful bridges of steel.

To promote a more widespread appreciation of the aesthetics of steel bridges and to honor the architectural excellence of modern bridge design, the American Institute of Steel Construction sponsors a Prize Bridge Competition. A distin· guished Jury of Awards, composed of leading educators, architects, and engineers, selects the steel bridges which it judges to be the most beautiful of those opened to traffic in the United States during the previous two years.

To establish an equitable basis for competition, awards are made in each of several contest classi· fications. Size and function determine the class in which each entry is eligible to compete. The prize winning bridges are maf1(ed with a stainless steel plaque, and the designers, owners, general contrllCtors, steel febrlca tors, and steel erectors are awarded engraved certificates in recognition 0/ their contribution and achievement.

The American Institute of Steel Construction sponsors this competition and awards the prizes In the belief that it is helping to render a public service by stimulating a lasting interest in im· proved bridge design.
