Award to Parkroyal
The Parkroyal Hotel in Christchurch has won a silver award of merit in the Association of Consulting Engineers’ annual awards. A Tauranga engineering firm’s heat exchanger and the Wellington Aquatic Centre took the gold awards of excellence. The awards were presented at the association’s annual conference In Wairakei.
The Holmes Consulting Group had met the many challenges of the Parkroyal with distinction, said the judge, Mr B. J. Wood. The engineering work had not only allowed the
architects’ concepts of form and space to be realised, but also meant the hotel was built within time and budget. The winning Tauranga engineering firm is Bruce Henderson Consultants, and the Wellington firm, Beca, Carter, Rollings and Ferner. ‘Merit awards were also won by the Auckland Regional Authority reservoir, Manakau; the Churchill Group Holdings building, Auckland; the Tauranga Harbour crossing - ,' and the earthquake reconstruction, Bay Milk Products factory, Edgecumbe.
