Our designs for the replacement crossing of Newark Bay in New Jersey are now in the public domain. BEAM worked with their engineering partners to investigate alternatives for the proposed twin cablestayed bridge for the New Jersey Turnpike Authority as part of the Preliminary Design stage of works.
We are delighted that our bridge over Bracklinn Falls in Callander, designed with Cake Industries, has been awarded Gold in the Scottish Design Awards as part of the “Low Cost Project Schemes under 200k” category. The plate-girder bridge is constructed from perforated weathering steel and was assembled on site from small modular components necessitated by the lack of access to the remote beauty spot.
Another award winner! The Frederick Douglass Memorial Bridge has been awarded the Figg Medal for “a single, recent outstanding achievement in bridge engineering that, through vision and innovation, provides an icon to the community for which it was designed”.
We are delighted that the Kids’ Bridge at Perth Childrens’ Hospital (Koolangka Bridge) has been presented with an award for Best Community Infrastructure by the Property Council of Western Australia. Congratulations to our collaborators at Fratelle and everyone else who worked on the project. Click here for more information about the project and BEAM’s involvement in it.

We are delighted to have been awarded first place in the City of Reykjavik’s design competition for a new sea bridge for buses, cyclists and pedestrians over Fossvogur. BEAM developed the winning proposals in conjunction with Icelandic engineers EFLA as part of a 2-stage design competition which attracted international entrants. More information about all three finalists is available at this link.
Our bridge across the White Cart River in Paisley has been granted Planning Permission by Renfrewshire Council as part of a new road corridor linking Paisley with AMIDS, Scotland’s home of manufacturing innovation.
