The Ernest E. Howard Award was instituted and endowed
in 1954 by Mrs. Howard in honor of her husband, the late Ernest
E. Howard, Past President of ASCE. The award is made annually to
a member of the Society who has made a definite contribution to
the advancement of structural engineering in research, planning,
design, or construction. The contribution may be in the form of
papers or other written presentations or through notable performance
or specific actions that have served to advance structural engineering.
The award consists of a gold-plated medal, a certificate,
and a cash prize determined annually by and subject to the approval
of the Society Awards Committee based on the income from the award
endowment.
