Norman Medal Explained
The Norman Medal is the highest honor granted by the American Society of Civil Engineers for a technical paper that makes a definitive contribution to engineering science and is distinguished by its "practical value" and "impact on engineering practice".[1] The medal was instituted by ASCE in 1872 and originally endowed by George H. Norman, M.ASCE. In 1897, ASCE assumed responsibility for the Norman Medal.[2]
This list contains recipients of the Norman Medal since 1874 (the first year it was awarded).[3]
