The New South Wales Chapter of the Australian Institute of Building (AIB) has announced the AIB Professional Excellence in Building Awards for 2016.
Eighteen building and construction professionals have been recognised at this year’s Awards which were attended by leading industry figures at a gala dinner on Friday, 24 June, 2016.
“These awards are the ultimate personal achievement for a professional builder. They recognise the contribution and leadership shown by individuals to the successful completion of a construction project, reinforcing the fact that the success of any building firm can be attributed to those responsible for construction projects”, said Norman Faifer FAIB, AIB’s National President.
The judging criteria for the AIB Professional Excellence in Building Awards weights the contribution of individuals and the challenges that they face. A decision to bestow a Professional Excellence Award is based upon challenges associated with the complexity of the project in its construction phase as opposed to the characteristics of the completed structure.
Recipients of Professional Excellence Awards within the AIB NSW Chapter will go forward to the National Awards that will be held in Melbourne on Saturday, 3 September, 2016 at the Park Hyatt Melbourne.
The Australian Institute of Building congratulates the two 2016 CSR AIB NSW Building Professionals of the Year, Tim Cadden from Hansen Yuncken for his work on the Wollongong Hospital Redevelopment and Mitchell Correia from Built for his work on 20 Martin Place.
“On behalf of the AIB and the industry I congratulate all the winners. The quality of the winners is testament to the high level of professionalism that exists in the construction industry”, Mr Faifer said.
