The Institution of Civil Engineers will honor the research of Debra Laefer, a professor of civil and urban engineering at NYU Tandon, who employed terrestrial laser scanning (TLS) to examine Ireland's historic Guinness Bridge. The research paper, published in the journal Engineering History and Heritage, garnered the 2019 Manby Prize from the institution, which lauded it for its exceptional quality and benefit to the civil engineering, construction and materials science community.
