It's a treacherous topic, because the early history is complex. But really interesting for 19th century history, because it's about innovations that we take for granted. It needs a task force, and the relevant info is probably only in contemporary periodicals. But if you come across anyone who is able to sort out exaclt who was awarded the medal in the early decades, that would be a great help in getting notability indications for civil engineers. (The problem is that there were silver medals, and bronze medals, and multiple awards most years: we really need the full details.) An example for the area is [[Lewis Cubitt]]. You'd have thought with the new King's Cross concourse just opened, there would be more attention to the architect from 1852 of the original station. Not so, really (and the photo of a bridge I put in the article isn't great even if it is the right one ...) Charles
