The UK Brick Development Association has awarded its Supreme Brick Building of 1997 to Hackney Community College in London, UK.

Stafford's Greengate Street paving scheme won the Paving and hard landscape award for its careful combination of colour and design. The Structural Brickwork award went to Winterton House in London, which used architectural solutions in the rebuilding of a tower block.

Closure
Article Abstract:
Bruce I. Dvorak and Desmond F. Lawler claim that cross-flow stripping is not an economically-viable alternative in the subsequent treatment of off-gases. However, the cost of off-gas treatment is equal to or greater in magnitude than the tower cost when the optimum stripping factor is forced to the minimum allowable value of two for both cross-flow and counterflow towers. The off-gas cost is the same for both configurations since the volumetric air flow rates are equal under these conditions.
