In the Construction Management/Quantity Surveying category, Jan Sedláček and David Frič from Project Management and Engineering took the excellent third place as part of an international team competing against other UK and US teams. They worked on the preparation of a project to be implemented at St John's Hill in London. It is part of a three-phase regeneration project to increase the number of affordable homes and establish a new community center by 2022. The project preparation and implementation is complicated by its location near a busy railway line.
