How are winners categorised?
These Award categories recognise the changes that the house-building industry is experiencing, particularly consolidation through company acquisitions and mergers, and the increase in the number of multistorey developments being built.
Winners are placed into one of three categories:
Small to Medium Category
A sole trader with responsibility for site management or a site manager employed by a company, which may be part of a group of companies, having annual registrations of less than 300 homes.
Large Category
A site manager employed by a company, which may be part of a group of companies, having annual registrations of 300 homes or more.
Multistorey Category
A site manager or project manager employed in a small to medium, or large sized company and working on a multistorey project. This category recognises a different set of skills from housing site management, where it is difficult to compare the two. Multistorey is defined as a structure above three storeys. No distinction is made between steel frame, timber frame, concrete frame and traditional build.
