Steel libraries feature among 2025 AISC/ACSA Steel Design Student Competition winners

Thirteen winners have been announced for the 2025 AISC/ACSA Steel Design Student Competition by the American Institute of Steel Construction and the Association of Collegiate Schools of Architecture. Submissions were accepted in two categories: one for a library, and the other for an open category of any program.
The thirteen winning projects were selected for their innovative designs using structural steel and their design responses to local contexts. For each category, the jurors chose First, Second, and Third-place winners, along with additional Honorable Mentions.
