San Diego International Airport Terminal 1 Wins AISC IDEAS Award

San Diego International Airport’s new Terminal 1 (SAN T1) was awarded a 2026 IDEAS Award for Excellence in Constructability.

“Using preassembled modular bridges and roof trusses contributed to speedy and seamless installation. Having structural designers and the steel fabricator team up at the beginning of the project are what ensures innovative constructability. Designers addressing difficult connections in advance and the fabricator using programs such as Tekla helps to avoid any possible issues for rework or additional work in the field.”
