Summary

The W. H. Warren Medal was established, as the Warren Memorial Prize, in 1926 by the Institution of Engineers, Australia to perpetuate the memory of the first President of the Institution, the late Professor William Henry Warren, Professor of Engineering at the University of Sydney from 1884 to 1925.

It is usually awarded annually for the best paper presented to the Institution on a civil engineering subject. The award was first presented in 1932.

Details

Originally this award was proposed to be in the form of a "premium" for the best paper presented in each year on some civil engineering subject, by a member of the Institution, published by the Institution in its Transactions/Journals.
* From 1929 to 1975, the "Warren Memorial Prize" was awarded by the Institution in the form of a book, with a bookplate. The bookplate incorporated a view of the Northbridge (Sydney) Suspension Bridge, a bridge designed by the late Professor.
* From 1975 the renamed "W. H. Warren Award" was awarded by the Civil Engineering College, in the form of a certificate and an engraved bronze "W. H. Warren Medal" 'for achievement in Civil Engineering'.
* From 1996, the scope was extended to include non-refereed reviewed papers, such as papers presented at conferences, and technical meetings, and the like.
