The Ferry Borges Scientific Award is granted every three years and is intended to reward works of dissemination of knowledge in the field of structural engineering, developed in conjunction with Portuguese entities. It was established by APEE in 1998, with the collaboration of the Laboratório Nacional de Engenharia Civil (LNEC) and the Ordem dos Engenheiros.
